Variegated Pittosporum
Shipping & Returns
Shipping live plants sometimes has its challenges when dealing with inclement weather but we strive to have every single order shipped out on their scheduled shipping date. Most orders will be scheduled to ship within 1-2 weeks of ordering. Because a plant needs TLC we only ship out on Mondays-Wednesdays to ensure the plants aren’t stationed somewhere over the weekend with no water or sunlight.
As lovely to look at as it is to smell, the Variegated Pittosporum produces small white flowers that bloom in the Spring and produce a scent much like the incredible smell of an Orange Blossom. With a moderate growth rate that eventually reaches about 8 feet tall and wide, with taller growth possible in optimal conditions, this shrub is especially lovely as part of a hedge or border, as a foundation plant around your home or outside wall, or as an accent to your other landscaping. Plant the Variegated Pittosporum partial to full sun, water it weekly and let the beautiful white, gray and light green foliage take a basic or simple landscaping display and add the perfect touch of color and style. With the perfect coloring for the background of your yard or garden and best when only minimally pruned, you can plant this shrub and know it’ll blend in, and stay healthy, with little work from you.
