notes
With the appearance of holly, Osmanthus Goshiki is a slow growing, evergreen shrub with attractive, coarsely spined, oval green leaves speckled with cream and often bearing a pink or bronze flush when young. Pretty, fragrant white flowers form in clusters in late summer and are easily hidden amongst the foliage. These are sometimes followed by small blue fruits.
Insights
