Pittosporum tenuifolium ‘Beach Ball’
Pittosporum tenuifolium Beach Ball is a stunning variety known for its compact, rounded form, vibrant foliage, and striking architectural appeal. This hardy evergreen naturally grows into a pleasing, dome-shaped ball, reaching just over a metre in height at maturity, even without regular pruning. With occasional trimming, it can be shaped into a smaller, more defined ball, making it an excellent alternative to traditional boxwood. Its small, glossy grey-green leaves contrast beautifully with dark stems, creating a dense, low-maintenance shrub that is resistant to pests and diseases. Ideal for use in decorative containers, Beach Ball can be displayed as a sculptural accent or planted in borders to provide year-round structure. It also serves well as a low hedge, adding both form and function to the landscape. Mature height and spread: 1.2m (4ft).
