Description

One of a number of exciting Pittosporum 'ball' varieties that are outstanding for their compact growth, foliage colour and superb architectural qualities.

Pittosporum tenuifolium ‘Beach Ball’ forms a pleasing, dome-like shape even without regular trimming, growing to just over a metre with maturity. Treated to a regular trim, it can be kept as an even tighter, smaller ball and makes a superb substitute for box. Small, glossy, grey-green leaves on dark stems form a dense, evergreen shrub that is robust, low maintenance and disease-resistant. Pittosporum tenuifolium ‘Beach Ball’ can be planted into decorative containers and grown in the same way as box balls to accent architectural features. Alternatively, plant it in the border to create ‘punctuation marks’ that add all-year-round structure. Pittosporum tenuifolium ‘Beach Ball’ can also be grown as a low hedge. Height and spread: 1.2m (4ft).

How to Grow
Grow Pittosporum in any rich,fertile but well drained soil. Choose a position with shelter from cold winter winds in sun or semi shade - the best leaf colour will be produced when grown in full sun.
More Info
Feed and water regularly until fully established. Pittosporum is naturally neat and tidy and requires little pruning. If necessary, lightly trim in spring to maintain a pleasing shape.
