Elaeagnus ebbingei compacta - Standard Tree - circa 150-170cm

Product ref: T26354

Availability: In stock

Elaeagnus ebbingei is a very useful and popular evergreen shrub. Forming quite a large, dense bush it will eventually reach a height of 2.5m-4m but can be pruned to your required size and shape. Leaves are initially spotted but mature to a dark-green yet still retain their silvery undersides. Small, tubular clusters of creamy-white flowers are borne in Autumn, and although they are not overly significant, they fill the air with a delightful, sweet fragrance.

 

Shade tolerant and versatile, it is most suited to a shrub border where it makes an excellent foil for more ornamental and colourful plants. It can also be used as informal hedge where it will provide year-round screening and interest. It possesses an overall height, including the pot, of around 150-170cm, consisting of a chunky clear stem (around 100cm tall) crowned by attractive mid-green foliage.

 

Supplied in approx. 7.5 litre containers.
