You don't have a problem yet.

Stop fertilizing them They don't need it. They are slow growers. They need to establish a good root system before they'll put out top growth. Don't expect more than a few inches a year, max, and not until the roots are well established. Sorry, they are just not that kind of plant.

Also, please put what zone you are in and you may want to tell us what part of the country. This info helps others answer your questions with more accuracy.

I don't remember how exactly but try going to the upper right "your houzz" and the place for your zone may be there.

We don't have enough information to help you. When were they planted? What kind of soil, drainage? Your general location, please. What kind of shrub fertilizer?

I live in Vancouver, Canada. I think it is zone 6. I mixed potting soil with alittle bit of dirt (I was told, they prefer average soil as supposed to top quality soil). It doesn't drain great but it's ok. The shrub fertilizer is for green shrubs, high in nitrogen. I think it is called plant prod. If they are very slow growers, maybe it's ok. I just wanna make sure they are being treated properly. How do you water your boxwoods?

They were planted about 2 months ago

What has your weather been like? Are you watering and if so how often? Once established Box doesn't need much if any watering in a climate with reasonable rainfall. It hails from the Mediterranean and is used to dry summers. Even in containers I only water mine once in a blue moon. It is possible you are overwatering - and you are certainly over fertilising.

I followed the instructions on the fertilizer. I will fertilize it less. I live in a rainy place but it has been relatively warm for a few months. I watered it twice a week, I am guessing it is too much. It has been pretty hot though. So watering it once every two weeks and fertilizing maybe once every month or even less is what you recommend?

A boxwood in the ground doesn't really require any fertilising at all under reasonable conditions. And once established it shouldn't need watering either.

Dont fetilize it anymore this season. Let it focus on root growth and establishing itself. These grow kind of slow anyway.

What has been said above is true. I love my Dwarf English Boxwood BECAUSE they do grow slowly (but they DO grow..., and the deer would rather starve than eat'em.) I tried other boxwood, but the DWARF English is still my favorite. Having planted them two months ago though, is virtually yesterday in plant time. If you want immediate gratification, this is not the shrub for you. Having said that, as long as conditions are to its likely, growth will speed up but probably not discernibly in the current growing season. Lay off the feeding but continue regular watering if you weird hot/dry summer weather continues. Good luck!

You guys are great. This is a wonderful site
