For landscapers looking for a sun loving fast growing hedge, Escallonia Iveyi is worth considering. Masses of white fragrant flowers from spring through summer.
This is a hybrid E. bifida x E exoniensis, and has been a favorite plant for many years. Excellent as a plant for the rear of the garden border, good glossy foliage and easy c are.
When planting as a hedge try a spacing of no more 1m for a good dense growth habit. You can plant at greater distances apart, however for the formal look closer is better.
Escallonia Iveyi is best pruned after flowering. This will help maintain a more rounded, compact shape, a denser habit and better flowering the next season.
