Good plant #125 - Choisya Ternata


This is an excellent and medium-sized evergreen and flowering shrub. It has dark green leaves and white flowers which appear in spring and then sometimes autumn.

It doesn't need pruning but you can prune as hard as you like after flowering.

It prefers a sunny and sheltered site and thrives in well-drained soil. It's fairly drought tolerant.

Cuttings can be taken in late spring after flowering.
