Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Eye-catching golden-yellow leaf margins and shiny, silvery new growth make this wonderful 10-15' shrub just shine. The glossy, evergreen leaves and its upright, dense form make it perfect as a privacy screen. One of its best features is the almost invisible but deliciously fragrant, tiny creamy-white flowers which appear from late summer to early autumn; are followed by edible, bright-red, oval fruits; an excellent shrub for hedge, backdrop or specimen.
