This mounded shrub, known for its easy-care and hardy characteristics, is favored in landscaping due to its dense evergreen foliage. Its large, glossy, vivid green leaves pair beautifully with the creamy white flowers that emit a delightful orange-blossom fragrance and bloom in early to mid-spring.

The shrub requires a consistent watering schedule to develop a robust root system. Once established, it only needs occasional watering, except during drought conditions when more frequent watering becomes necessary. Pruning is generally unnecessary, although annual shearing can help maintain its desired shape.

This variety of Pittosporum is distinctively tightly branched, with nodes closer together than other varieties, creating a dense, neatly mounded, and glossy foliage appearance that requires minimal trimming. It serves excellently as a low hedge and performs well in evergreen foreground plantings, foundation plantings, and when mass planted.

The plant’s springtime display of fragrant white flowers, set against shiny green leaves, has a captivating citrus scent. Its compact and dense growth habit makes it an ideal choice for mixed borders and flower beds, enhancing any garden with both its visual appeal and fragrance.
