Pittosporum tobira 'Miss Muffet'
APPEARANCE : Dwarf evergreen shrub, twice as wide as it is high, and naturally rounded. Bright glossy long leaves all year; dense growth habit; fragrant cream flowers in Spring. For a more upright form with similar looks, choose Pittosporum tobira dwarf.
USE FOR : Borders, pots, hedging, mass groundcover.
PLANTING : Plant in well drained soil, in dappled shade or out of hot midday sun. Will grow better in a sheltered location but can stand some coastal breezes and light overnight frosts once established.

Will regrow after a hard prune if necessary. Water frequently until plant is established, check for moisture during dry spells.

YOUR PLANTS : These are tubestock plants, healthy young plants with new roots that will establish quickly in your garden. The pot size is 80mm high and 42 mm wide.
