Boxwood variety for very low hedge

Hello,

I've read through these forums many times and finally joined! I'm planning on planting a low boxwood hedge (about 14" tall and a foot wide) and want the darkest green color available. I've read that 'Green Velvet' stays dark green all year, but it grows to 3-4' tall and wide. If I buy small plants, would I be able to keep this variety to just over a foot tall? If so, how often would I have to prune to maintain a neat square hedge?

Or if not, is there another variety that stays dark green all year that might work?

Thanks so much!
