Why Choose Elaeagnus Ebbingei?

Elaeagnus ebbingei stands out for its silvery-green leaves with a gentle shimmer, making it eye-catching in any border or mixed planting. In autumn, it rewards with tiny, fragrant creamy-white flowers, followed in spring by small orange-red berries loved by local birdlife.

Planting and Growing Tips

This sturdy shrub thrives in full sun to partial shade and copes well with coastal winds and dry spells once established. For hedging, plant Elaeagnus ebbingei at 1 to 1.5 metre intervals. Pruning is straightforward—trim in late winter or after flowering to maintain shape and encourage lush new growth. Their dense habit suits both formal hedges and more relaxed, natural screening. Mulch and water during the first summer for the best start.
