This very elegant, columnar form of sweet olive reaches 6' tall and only 3' wide. Dark-green, holly -like foliage is beautiful and makes a nice accent! Inconspicuous, creamy-white blooms in fall perfume the entire garden with their intoxicating fragrance! This is a fabulous introduction from JC Raulston. S/M

Elegant columnar evergreen, 6' tall and only 3' wide. Holly like leaves are dark green and textural…nice formal shape without the work! Full sun to part shade, average garden soil and summer water. Small, cream, axillary flowers in fall perfume the entire garden in a heady jasmine/carnation fragrance! Easy, low care, rare. A JC Raulston selection.
