A medium sized shrub-like tree with multi-stemmed branching and a bushy and compact form. Leaves are rounded, thick and a leathery blue/grey/green colour. This is fast growing and a bullet-proof option for screening and hedging as it is suited to a wide range of harsh growing conditions. It can be clipped lightly to keep its form compact and tight and is an ideal plant for coastal environments.
