A symbol of French gardens

Buxus is a shrub native to the Mediterranean. It has been used for several centuries in the development of the most prestigious Parisian gardens so much so that it is considered as one of the symbols of French gardens. It is also one of the main species used in landscaping the gardens of the Palace of Versailles. The box contains a strong symbolism. With evergreen foliage, it is associated with longevity and immortality, just like ivy. It is also heavily used on Palm Sunday. This preserved foliage is ideal for symbolizing the power of nature, as well as the life that blows its way through the winter.
