what size boxwood do you need?There is a lot of this in Western North Carolina. Like @Mike Davis says it grew along side the creeks. We called it iron wood because it was very hard and tough. I don't recall the trees ever getting bigger than a few inches in diameter.
Funny you should mention this wood. I was doing some research yesterday on alternatives for boxwood and this one came up. Let us know where you find a source.
