Pot Size

A fast, glossy-leaf evergreen with bigger, brighter foliage than common viburnum—made for formal hedges, soft screening, and feature planting. Small fragrant white flowers in spring–summer. Excellent performer in Brisbane.

Origin: Asia (ornamental selection)
Attracts: Bees & beneficial insects

Plant Guide

What to use me for: tidy formal hedge, soft privacy screen, feature near entries or along fences.

I grow to: about 3–4 m tall × 2–3 m wide; I can be kept 2–3 m with pruning.

Features: large glossy foliage, fragrant white flowers, clips cleanly for crisp lines.

Plant Care

Where to place me: Full sun to part shade with good airflow. How far to space me: 1.0–1.2 m centres for a dense hedge; 1.5–2.0 m for a softer screen.

Soil Conditions: Free-draining, enriched with organic matter; avoid waterlogging.

Extra-Care: regular water to establish, then low–moderate; tip-prune 2–3×/yr to thicken; spring feed with slow-release fertiliser. Help protect me from intense summer heat.
