£16.95

(Oleaster) A popular and versatile large evergreen shrub with dainty, sweetly fragrant white flowers from October to January and rounded greenish blue leaves.

The perfume of the flowers fills the air on still, mild autumn nights.

A wind proof shrub, Elaeagnus x ebbingei is very tolerant of maritime exposure, growing well right by the coast.

Although handsome in its own right, this ia also a good standalone screening plant and can also be pruned regularly if required to shape. Often planted as a thick hedge.
