This broadleaf evergreen makes a great plant for a nighttime garden, to enjoy the spicy/sweet citrus fragrance as it blooms. The blooms attract hummingbirds, butterflies, and bees. It is a great plant to plant in Zones 7b through 11b.

Sometimes it can be a little fuller, or it could be a little less full. However, it will be a healthy well-rooted plant. If you will not be happy with one of the smaller plants (as shown on the right of picture #2), we respectfully ask you to please not buy. We always send the biggest plants first!
