Osmanthus heterophyllus 'Variegatus'

Sparkling, beautiful evergreen shrub with holly like leaves, broadly edged in creamy white ; moderate growth, tight and dense to 5', then slow… eventually to 8'h and 6' w. Makes a lovely 5' hedge with minimal maintenance! Fragrant, white axillary flowers in fall are wonderfully intoxicating. Prefers fertile, moist soil but tolerant; sun to part shade. Deer usually leave this shrub alone.
