Description

Compact Shiny Xylosma is the superior, thornless, and more manageable cultivar of the species. It retains all the toughness and glossy beauty but in a perfectly scaled package for residential gardens. It is the definitive choice for creating a neat, low-maintenance evergreen hedge, screen, or shaped specimen without the worry of thorns.

• Offers all the benefits of Shiny Xylosma—glossy foliage, heat/drought tolerance, pest resistance—in a smaller, thornless form that is ideal for foundation plantings, low hedges, and containers.

• Maintains a dense, rounded habit naturally, requiring less pruning to stay neat and within bounds compared to the larger species.

• An exceptionally reliable and versatile evergreen shrub that performs consistently in both sunny and shaded locations.

• The top recommendation for a trouble-free, evergreen shrub that provides structure and coverage with virtually no effort.
