Oleaster is a lovely species, with dark green leaves which are speckled with tiny silver dots on the upper side and are silver grey underneath, so hedges have a green/silver appearance from a distance. There are other unusual features to Oleaster - the stems are bronze coloured, it flowers in Autumn (small grey/cream flowers) and it fruits (small orange/grey speckled) in Spring - perhaps because it's from the sub-continent! Despite its origins, it's fully hardy. Good in dry soil and in salt laden air.
We have our own pot grown Oleaster hedge plants available all year round.
Don't forget to order RootGrow and/or Bonemeal.
