Pittosporum Silver Sheen

Ideal for Hedges and Screens

'Silver Sheen' is widely used for hedging, thanks to its rapid growth and upright form. It creates a semi-formal screen that offers privacy without appearing heavy. It’s perfect for modern landscapes, driveways, and coastal plantings where light and texture are desired.

Attractive Foliage and Growth Habit

The foliage consists of tiny, rounded leaves in a soft silver-green colour. These shimmer beautifully in the light, giving the plant its name. 'Silver Sheen' typically grows 3–4 metres tall and 1.5–2 metres wide, making it suitable for taller hedges or as a background plant in large gardens.

Growing Conditions

This variety thrives in full sun to part shade and prefers well-drained soils. It tolerates wind, coastal conditions, and light frost. Once established, it is relatively drought-tolerant and requires little maintenance beyond occasional trimming.

Care and Maintenance

Trim 'Silver Sheen' annually to maintain a dense habit and encourage fresh growth. Apply a general-purpose fertiliser in spring for best performance. Mulching around the base will help retain moisture and reduce weed competition.
