White Mexican Olive #7

Description:

An evergreen large shrub that can be trained as a single stem tree; clusters of white, trumpet shaped flowers cover the branches in spring, and then sporadically all year; yellow-green olive-like fruits in summer; a great accent choice for the landscape.

Mexican Olive features showy white trumpet-shaped flowers with gold throats along the branches from late spring to early summer. It has grayish green foliage with gray undersides. The fuzzy pointy leaves remain grayish green throughout the winter. The fruits are showy chartreuse drupes displayed in mid summer. The fruit can be messy if allowed to drop on the lawn or walkways, and may require occasional clean-up.
