Pittosporum tenuifolium are native ot new Zealand. Pittosporum tenuifolium Wrinkled Blue is a striking, tall shrub which is prized for its glossy, silvery blue, slightly wrinkled foliage. In summer, it often produces small, deep purple honeyscented fragrsant flowers. Easy to grow in most moist, free draining soils, including chalky ones. A delightful plant which can be used in a mixed planting or as a stand alone specimen in the garden or can easily be grown in a pot. When growing in a pot or other container. Use a good quality compost. Ensure you feed regularly as a hungry plant is a poor performer. We recommend Osmoscote pro 12-14 month applied in the early spring. One application gives all the nutrients the plant requires for the whole year. This plant is not as hardy as some and is best planted in a sheltered location, especially in colder northern areas. If grown in a pot the compost should not be allowed to freeze. Hard pruning can be safely undertaken to control the size of the plant but must only be done when there is no danger of frost.
