Handsome, formal appearance to this compact shrub. Perfect as a low hedge needing minimal trimming. White leaf margins provides contrast against dark green shrubs. Tolerates heat and poor soils. Evergreen.
Border, Hedge, Seacoast Exposure. Here's a little hedge that brings light to dark gardens. Stands out boldly next to green lawns and works nicely as edging, hedges or small topiary forms. May also be used in shrub and perennial borders to create neutral fields of color that accentuate other foliage and flowers. Makes a perfect cover-up for the foundation of a wall draped with Chinese Wisteria (Wisteria sinensis) and other purple-blue flowering vines.
Follow a regular watering schedule during the first growing season to establish a deep, extensive root system. Feed with a general purpose fertilizer before new growth begins in spring. For a tidy, neat appearance, shear annually to shape.
