Why we love this plant!

Well-adapted to South East Queensland’s climate, this fast-growing evergreen shrub is a favourite for creating hedges and privacy screens with its dense, glossy foliage. It produces clusters of highly fragrant white flowers year-round, attracting bees and other beneficial insects. With its resilience to heat and humidity, it thrives in suburban and coastal gardens, offering both aesthetic appeal and a natural habitat for pollinators. Ideal for formal gardens or informal screens, this hardy plant provides structure, greenery, and an inviting fragrance to outdoor spaces.
