Spring is when most people notice their boxwoods, which may have issues. Here is a new (or updated) bulletin from MSU that should help identify the problems. It would be a good one to have on hand and to pass out at Earth Day, etc. Most of the issues are old ones but the boxwood moth is a new threat we are likely to see, and winter injury might be worse this year. Just thought you would like to be prepared for the question.
