Fast growing small tree that can be kept pruned as a shrub with soft feathery silvery green foliage. Fluffy looking heavily scented flowers are produced through winter and early spring.
Only reliably hardy in warmer parts of the South/Southwest of the UK and sheltered inner city gardens so best to keep under glass for the winter in colder areas. Grow in a good loam/sandy soil that is moist but well drained. Will not tolerate lime so only grow in acid to neutral soils.
Please note these do not travel particularly well often dropping leaves if stuck in transit for long. Do not worry, they soon recover.
Sent as a young plant in a 9cm pot. May be cut back for shipping.
