Clusters of small, fragrant, tubular, white flowers bloom in late summer, often persisting into the autumn and are followed by small, dark fruits. Osmanthus heterophyllus ‘Tricolor’ can tolerate a wide range of soils, even clay and sandy, put prefers fertile, slightly acidic, moist and well-drained soils. It grows well in full sun, partial shade, and even full shade. Once established, it is resistant to drought. It can withstand frost and low temperatures. Generally, pest-free. Low maintenance plant, doesn’t require pruning, but it tolerates it very well. Holly Olive 'Goshiki' is a wonderful, tough, and long-lived plant suitable for informal, cottage, coastal, and urban gardens. Perfect for hedges and screens. Excellent for banks and slopes.

About Us

During this time, we have developed a large stock of trees, mature evergreen shrubs, conifers, Japanese maples, cedars and olives. What sets us apart from a generic garden center is solid unwavering focus on trees and some bigger shrubs. You will find thousands of trees, hundreds of varieties and lots of experts who are working on the nursery and more than willing to help you to choose a plant for you.

What you will not find is hot tubs, garden furniture and plastic garden gnomes. In a nutshell, trees is what we know and trees is what we do, and only trees (and some shrubs to go with the trees).
