Golden Sheen Pittosporum 180MM

Pittosporum tenuifolium 'Golden Sheen' PBR

I am Golden Sheen Pittosporum. My family originated from New Zealand.

Habit Shrub - Hardy and Low Maintenance
Plant family Pittosporaceae
Tall and evergreen my upright narrow habit and bright foliage make me a standout screening and hedging option. My shiny leaves are variegated with splashes of golden green. Fast growing I make ideal screening along boundaries and driveways. Hardy I tolerate of a range of conditions including dry and a significant amount of shade. I can be pruned to size and formal shapes as required or left unclipped where I will naturally develop a naturally upright form. Adaptable I can be grown in large pots and containers.
I am popular and will make you happy because...
My naturally compact upright form make me a perfect screening or windbreak plant
My shiny variegated dark green foliage has splashes of golden green making me an attractive feature
I require less ongoing trimming to keep me in great shape than many hedging options
