{"product_id":"variegated-pittosporum","title":"Variegated Pittosporum","description":"\u003cp\u003eVariegated Pittosporum is a broad, evergreen shrub with gray-green leaves edged in creamy white and small spring flowers with an orange-blossom fragrance. It brings year-round brightness to hedges, screens, foundations, and mixed Southern shrub borders. The plant can become large if left unpruned, but selective pruning after flowering can maintain a smaller natural shape. Grow it in full sun to part shade with well-drained soil and some shelter from severe winter wind in colder Zone 8b locations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003ePlant details\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBotanical name:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cem\u003ePittosporum tobira 'Variegata'\u003c\/em\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLight:\u003c\/strong\u003e Full sun to part shade\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUSDA zones:\u003c\/strong\u003e 8–11\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMature height:\u003c\/strong\u003e 5–10 ft\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMature width:\u003c\/strong\u003e 5–10 ft\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFoliage:\u003c\/strong\u003e Evergreen; gray-green leathery leaves with creamy-white margins\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlower or feature:\u003c\/strong\u003e Creamy white spring flowers that age yellow and smell like orange blossoms\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBloom season:\u003c\/strong\u003e Spring to late spring\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWater:\u003c\/strong\u003e Average; drought tolerant once established; well-drained soil\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrowth habit:\u003c\/strong\u003e Dense, rounded to vase-shaped large shrub\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLandscape uses:\u003c\/strong\u003e Hedge, privacy screen, foundation planting, mixed border, coastal garden, specimen\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDeer tolerance:\u003c\/strong\u003e Moderately deer resistant; browsing can occur\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSouth Carolina garden note:\u003c\/strong\u003e Zone 8b is the cool edge of its range.
