Buxus harlandii, the Harland boxwood, is a species of flowering plant in the family Buxaceae. It is native to coastal southeast China, from Hong Kong and other Guangdong islands down to Hainan, and to Vietnam.[1] Care must be taken when purchasing, as many specimens labeled Buxus harlandii are actually Buxus microphylla.[2]
