🐛 What’s Happening to My Boxwoods?

If your boxwood shrubs in Windsor-Essex are looking unhealthy, sparse, or chewed up, you may be dealing with the box tree moth—a recently introduced invasive pest that's causing serious damage in our region.

---

🔍 What Are the Signs?

Leaves appear chewed or skeletonized

Brown patches or complete defoliation

Webbing present on branches

Shrubs look thin, unhealthy, or dying

These symptoms are caused by the moth's larvae, which feed aggressively on boxwood leaves and can cause lasting damage if left untreated.

---

🌿 Treatment Options: BTK Spray

A great option for treating this pest is BTK (Bacillus thuringiensis kurstaki)—a biological insecticide that’s safe, easy to apply, and targets the caterpillars specifically, without harming beneficial insects.

However, effective control usually requires multiple applications per season and consistent monitoring, which can be a recurring chore for homeowners.

---

🔄 A Lower-Maintenance Alternative

If you're looking to simplify your garden care, another option is to replace your boxwoods with pest-resistant alternatives that offer similar form and beauty.

This approach can reduce the need for regular spraying and observation, giving you a fresh, healthy landscape with fewer long-term concerns.

---

🌱 Recommended Boxwood Substitutes
Here are a few evergreen alternatives that pair beautifully with the deep red tones of a Japanese maple:

Dwarf Japanese Holly (Ilex crenata) – Small, boxwood-like leaves with a neat, compact habit

Inkberry Holly (Ilex glabra) 'Shamrock' or 'Compacta' – Lush, deep green foliage with soft texture

Globe Cedar (Thuja occidentalis ‘Danica’ or ‘Mr. Bowling Ball’) – Dense, rounded shape with soft needles

Yew (Taxus x media) 'Densiformis' – Classic, formal look with excellent winter hardiness

Mountain Laurel (Kalmia latifolia) – Evergreen with bonus spring blooms, best for part shade.

Having a mix of evergreen and perennial / annual plant material is key to a balanced landscape. We don't the gardens looking empty in the winter!

When planting smaller trees, shrubs, and perennials, oftentimes, the newly landscaped area can look a little bare.

That's okay 👌🏼

Things will fill in in a short time. Resist the temptation to overplant - we don't want a jungle in 5 years! 🙉

With that being said, we are looking forward to this beautiful poolside landscaping to fill in! 🙏🏻
