This attractive small tree with silver accent coloured foliage produces dainty white flowers in spring.
POSITION: Grows best in full sun to part shade in poorly drained soils and will require some moisture over the dryer periods. This plant is ideal for coastal locations where rainfall is consistent. Once established this plant will tolerate short periods of dry.
CARE: This plant requires little maintenance and only prune if desired. It is best to initially feed with a slow release low phosphorus ferilser to help establish the plant.
