Pittosporum tenuifolium Gold Star – Evergreen kohuhu

Pittosporum tenuifolium Gold Star is a fantastic evergreen with multiple seasons of interest. It is loved for its unusually coloured leathery foliage, pale yellow when young and darker green when mature. In late spring and early summer it will fill the air with a lovely perfume from insignificant honey fragranced, dark purple flowers.This highly decorative evergreen will thrive in full sun and moist, well-drained soil. Although it can manage partial shade, this plantโ€™s foliage wonโ€™t be as vivid and striking as it would be in a sunny spot. A New Zealand native, Pittosporum Gold Star works well as a specimen plant in a mixed border or as a feature in a roomy planter. Supplied in 3 litre containers.
