Nursery contributed plant descriptions

The eleagnus has a dark green mature leaf. The new growth is a rusty color. Makes a nice evergreen shrub for difficult dry areas. Water the first couple of years.
This compact, to 6' rather than 8-12', tidily rounded evergreen also has much more finely-textured silvery foliage; with its superior drought and salt tolerance it makes a fine hedge for tough spots; tiny, cream late-summer flowers are intoxicatingly fragrant too. S/M-D/GDr
