When left to grow natural it forms a cute, dense arching mound to 2 feet tall and 2 feet wide in 10 years or so, but can be maintained at half that size with occasional clipping. The dainty boxwood-like leaves are a golden yellow with 6 or more hours of direct sunlight per day ora  glowing chartreuse to platinum blonde with less sun. In milder areas of its range (Zone 8-9) the foliage is generally evergreen however might be semi-evergreen to deciduous in colder climates of Zones 6b-7b.\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cspan\u003eLandscape \u0026amp; Garden Uses\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eGrowing up to 2 feet tall and equally as wide without pruning, or smaller with occasional trimming, the Twiggy Boxleaf Honeysuckle is ideal for use as an accent in small garden spaces and container gardens or in groupings where space allows.
