Elaeagnus 'Compacta'

Elaeagnus 'Compacta' is a fast-growing evergreen shrub bearing glossy, dark green leaves with a sliver sheen to their underside. Tiny, fragrant cream-white flowers can sometimes appear in the Autumn above the foliage. This Elaeagnus is suitable for exposed coastal areas and works well as informal hedging or screening. It is compact as the name suggests when compared to others of the same breed, making it easier to maintain and manage.

Plant in fertile, well-drained soil. This plant can tolerate partial sun but prefers to be kept in full sun. Hardy and drought resistant.
