ELAEAGNUS EBBINGEI
Elaeagnus ebbingei is an evergreen shrub among the most appreciated in gardening for its versatility, resistance and decorative value. With a vigorous and tidy habit, it quickly forms a dense and compact vegetative mass, ideal for creating screening hedges, privacy barriers or to be grown as an isolated specimen in gardens, parks or large pots. The foliage is one of its strong points: large, oval leaves, shiny green on the upper side and silvery on the lower side, which create iridescent reflections with the sunlight and give an elegant appearance even in the coldest months. In autumn, small, very fragrant, creamy white flowers appear between the leaves, further enriching its ornamental interest. Thanks to its dense structure and rapid growth, Elaeagnus ebbingei is perfect for those who want an impenetrable, evergreen and undemanding hedge, even in difficult conditions. It is in fact a plant extremely resistant to cold, wind, salt and drought, capable of growing even in poor, calcareous or polluted soils. Extremely easy to grow, it can be left to develop freely for a more natural look, or pruned regularly to maintain a more formal and tidy shape. A perfect solution for those looking for a plant that is beautiful, functional and resistant all year round.
