Dense evergreen shrub growing to 8-12’ tall x 3-6’ wide. Can also be pruned into a small tree. This robust variety is revered for its handsome dark green foliage as well as its abundance of fragrant pink-tinged white flower clusters that appear in spring. Following bloom appear clusters of attractive metallic looking blue fruit that attract birds throughout summer. Great as a tall background hedge or screen. Prefers a regular watering schedule and a full to partial sun exposure.
