This evergreen shrub form delights with its compact, mounding habit and glossy, dark green leaves that can develop bronze or reddish tones in cooler fall temperatures. Hardy in USDA zones 8-11, it thrives in warm climates with temperatures above 20°F. Its delicate, star-shaped, white flowers carry a sweet, jasmine-like fragrance, blooming profusely in late spring to summer. This shrub form prefers well-drained, moderately fertile soil and performs best in full sun to partial shade. It can reach a mature height of 3-4 feet and width of 3-4 feet, making it ideal for small landscape spaces or as a low hedge. Deer-resistant and attractive to pollinators, it’s a versatile addition to the garden with excellent drought tolerance once established. This form does not produce significant fruit, but its lush foliage and enchanting flowers make a striking garden feature.
