Pittosporum Sunburst is a hardy, fast growing plant ideal for hedging and screening. It bears foliage that is glossy with rounded lime green leaves with striking yellow markings on them.

The bark of the Chinese Elm is a real stand out feature, as the tree sheds it in patches, creating the effect of a tapestry of varying browns and greys. Foliage is lush, shiny and green, and the tree is semi deciduous, turning golden in autumn, and keeping its leaves in warmer areas. It has also been noted by many Aussie gardeners in recent years that native birds enjoy the fruit of the Chinese Elm. | Pittosporum tenuifolium ‘Silver Sheen’
