Description:
Pittosporum Miss Muffet is a compact cultivar of the evergreen shrub Pittosporum tobira. It is popular for its small size and dense, rounded growth habit. Miss Muffet is an excellent choice for small gardens, borders, or container plantings. The foliage is dark green, glossy, and leathery, providing an attractive backdrop for its fragrant flowers. In spring, it produces clusters of small, creamy-white flowers with a sweet, honey-like scent. These flowers add a delicate beauty to the plant and attract pollinators. This cultivar is valued for its low-maintenance nature and ability to tolerate a variety of growing conditions. It thrives in full sun to partial shade and prefers well-drained soil. Can be used as a border plant, low hedge, or as a focal point in small garden spaces. Grows approx 1m H x 1m W.
