    Hi,
    I saw this shrub in someone's garden and wanted to find out exactly what it was, but the owner thought it could be some kind of spirea, did not know exactly.
    I sent the pic to a local gardencentre and they advised me that it was most likely gree velvet boxwood - but after comparing it to the pics on the web I amnot sure if this is any kind of boxwood.

    Would you be able to identify it for me please? The leaves are very delicate and the shrub is about 2,5 x 2,5 feet.
    Thank you,
    Jan

    Box does not produce divided leaves. This is liable to be something in the pea family.
