Default Buxus Winter Gem question

Hey everyone--

I just purchased 5 Buxus Winter Gems (buxus microphylla 'Winter Gem').
I thought they would be a good substitute for Green Mountain as I
prefer a bigger leaf . The Monrovia tag says Winter Gem matures to " 4
to 6 ft tall and wide". *BUT* after getting them home and doing a
little more research, I'm seeing more websites with Winter Gem listed
at a 2 to 3 ft mature height. Does anyone know the true mature height?

Thanks so much
