Southern Living Plant Collection Olive Martini Elaeagnus
Olive Martini Elaeagnus is a unique and beautiful shrub to have in your landscapes!
In the spring, the leaves take on a silvery hue but they only get more interesting from there! As they mature, gold-edged evergreen leaves create a spectacular display and persist through the winter. This yellow variegation is so unique and offers added interest!
A stable, sturdy appearance makes this shrub ideal as a hedge or foundational planting in landscape beds. This baby grows vigorously, too so it'll catch up to other plant varieties more quickly.
The USDA Plant Hardiness Zone Map is the standard by which gardeners and growers can determine which plants are most likely to thrive at a location. The map is based on the average annual minimum winter temperature, divided into 10-degree F zones.
