Fast growing with large leathery bright green lustrous foliage. At times of the year I swear someone polishes the leaves, so glossy.. Landscapers love this plant when they need a meaty full look fast, Large clusters of white flowers attract anything that likes nectar and the whole plant can buzz and vibrate with nectar action in a big flowering season. Needs a bit more trimming to keep as a hedge, but a great hedge it makes! (minimum of half day sun).
