The well-behaved fast-growing one

Native evergreen tall hedging plant with rich green foliage perfect for hedging and screening. It has a lovely orange-copper shine to it when it newly emerges.

Non-invasive roots, and fast-growing, hence the name. Native birds love to feed from the flowers and berries, as they do with all lilly pillys.
