Castello Boxwood (Calycophyllum multiflorum) is a South American wood related to Lemonwood. It isn’t a true boxwood, but it has a very similar pale yellow to light brown color.

The grain is generally straight, sometimes slightly interlocked, and the texture fine and smooth. It’s moderately durable and turns, glues and finishes well. Its small, tightly packed pores make it fairly tough to cut, despite its generally cooperative nature.

It dries slowly, so it’s often sold green or partly green. The trees are small and supply through US channels is limited, so prices reflect that.

Castello Boxwood is a popular choice for turning, carving, inlay and bows. For the real thing, see Boxwood.

Not listed in the CITES Appendices or on the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species.

Why We Love This Wood

A well-priced alternative to genuine Boxwood, with the same pale, creamy look.
