Description:
Pearly Gates is a dense bushy form of Osmanthus that will produce masses of tubular white and sweetly fragrant flowers in winter through early spring. Plants are hardy and easy to grow in with full sun or shade and tolerant of light frost. The small dark foliage makes it ideal for hedging. The sister-variety Heaven Sent flowers slightly later, so use in combo to extend the flowering season.
