An evergreen native shrub<br />
from southern China<br />
growing 3-5m in height.<br />
It is extremely tough and has<br />
shiny, leathery leaves.<br />
White Spring flowers are<br />
profuse, held in terminal<br />
clusters and are mildly<br />
perfumed.<br />
An abundance of bluish<br />
black berries follow in<br />
Summer.<br />
The berries are highly desirable to birds and their distribution<br />
into bushland is widespread.<br />
The seeds can also be spread by water.<br />
Evergreen shrub with arching<br />
branches to 2 m high.<br />
Shiny, dark green glossy foliage<br />
with mauve-pink tubular flowers.<br />
Suitable as a screening or<br />
specimen plant, this hardy, water<br />

this and other recommended<br />
