Description
Fast growing evergreen with very attractive, large, leathery leaves metallic grey-green above and silver underneath but are almost entirely silver when young. Many inconspicuous but intensely fragrant, bell-shaped, silvery flowers appear in clusters in October and November and these are followed by small egg-shaped orange or red fruits in spring. These are edible and are known as Wild Olives and are popular in south-eastern Europe. They are good food for birds. Ideal for shady, windy or seaside positions, but not cold or wet situations.
