Pittosporum Tasman Ruffles 200MM

Pittosporum tenuifolium 'Tasman Ruffles'

I am Pittosporum Tasman Ruffles. My family originated from New Zealand.

Habit Shrub - Can be kept narrow
Plant family Pittosporaceae
I am a special selection of Pittosporum, featuring jade green foliage with beautifully ruffled edges which are highlighted against dark reddish-black stems. Fast growing I make ideal screening along boundaries and driveways. Hardy I tolerate a range of conditions including dry spells and a significant amount of shade. I can be pruned to size and shape as required or left unclipped where I will develop a naturally rounded form.
I am popular and will make you happy because...
I have a naturally compact upright habit making me a perfect screening plant
I have a naturally compact form, requiring less ongoing trimming to maintain great shape
I also look fantastic in a decorative pot
