Are Buxus trees indigenous?
Those who argue that it is indigenous point to the naming of Box Hill in Surrey which has a population of Buxus trees growing on it; there have also been archaeological finds of Roman graves in England with Buxus sempervirens leaves thrown in, suggesting that they have been present in the British Isles for some time.
Is Buxus humilis a Boxe tree?
On the other hand, the herbalist John Parkinson drew a distinction between 'Buxus humilis' ( Buxus sempervirens) and 'our common Boxe tree', saying that the former was found only in gardens and that the latter was common in woodland. So, is Buxus sempervirens native to the British Isles or not?
Is Buxus sempervirens A native species of the British Isles?
Whether or not Buxus sempervirens is a native species of the British Isles is a surprisingly contentious issue, and there is no agreement on the answer.
Was Buxus a useful plant in the 1600s?
It would appear that Buxus was not really considered as a medicinally useful plant in the 1600s. Parkinson said that 'it is not much used in Physicke by any now adayes' but he does describe a medicine made of Buxus leaves that he 'learned of a friend, who had tryed it effectuall' which could 'cure the biting of a mad dogge'.

Use and Management
Boxwood makes a beautiful clipped hedge, lending a formal air to any landscape. It looks best when located along a foundation or as a border along a walk or path. Plant it far enough away from the walk unless you plan on regular clipping to keep the walk clear. Locating it several feet away will keep the foliage away from the walk for several ye
Pests and Diseases
Boxwood leaf miner is the traditional and perennial pest of Boxwood. Infestation rarely kills plants, but foliage can be marred and severely discolored if the infestation is serious. Soil nematodes can be especially troublesome in sandy soils. Roots rot if soil is kept too wet. Figure 3. Foliage of Common Boxwood hort.ifas.ufl.edu
