I am a beautiful dark green dwarf bush with a fast growth habit well suited to box and other hedging styles.
I have a compact form with glossy, oval leaves. My new growth is a lime green colour creating great contrast.
I have an upright habit and good natural form but am easily maintained as a formal hedge with a minimal amount of trimming.
I perform well container grown to be appreciated in court yards, paved areas or in a traditional urn and other planters.
I am popular and will make you happy because...
My lush green form, fast growth, upright habit and response to pruning suits me to low hedges and screening

Tips for success
A light trim in spring and autumn is usually all that is required to maintain good shape
Plant at least 1.8m apart.
Choose a full sun to partly shaded position.
Water regularly while establishing, then check soil moisture before watering.
Choose whether you are planting in the garden or a pot to receive guidance built from this plant's light, water, habit and use information.
