Elaeagnus Fruitlandii
Elaeagnus Fruitlandii (Olive Martini™) is an irregular, mounding evergreen shrub prized for its bold foliage and fragrance. The broad, wavy-margined leaves of Elaeagnus Fruitlandii emerge silver and mature to olive green with distinctive silver undersides, creating year-round visual interest in the landscape.
In fall, Elaeagnus Fruitlandii produces clusters of tiny, cream-white, bell-shaped flowers. While not showy, these blooms are extremely fragrant and are followed by decorative red berries. This evergreen shrub develops its best foliage color when grown in full sun and loamy, well-drained soil. Elaeagnus Fruitlandii is drought tolerant once established and is typically ignored by deer, making it a durable, low-maintenance landscape choice.
