Narrative
Full name as recorded at U.S. National Arboretum: Buxus microphylla 'Green Pillow'. The USNA Boxwood SSR study found that this accession clustered with NA 30313 (presumed correct 'Green Pillow'), but was not entirely indistinguishable. It did group indistinguishably with NA 17091, recorded as 'Myosotidifolia'. We need to determine if the differences are significant or if all three accessions are 'Green Pillow'. -SBL
