PITTOSPORUM EUGENIOIDES LEMONWOOD In New Zealand

PITTOSPORUM EUGENIOIDES - LEMONWOOD

A small to medium size shrub-like plant with glossy, wavy, finger-like leaves which are yellow in colour. Grows upright and is bushy all the way to the base of the trunk. The bark is a pale grey colour. Hardy and fast growing, Lemonwood can be used to cover an unsightly scene or provide a shelter belt between two properties. Lemonwood can be trimmed to retain form and keep compact. The leaf contains a lemon scent when crushed, hence the name.
