Comments:
Has very fragrant flowers in one cycle in fall. A small tree or large shrub with dark green leaves with spines on the leaf margins. This osmanthus lends itself well to pruning and can be used as sheared hedge, barrier plant, it also makes a good screen and can be grown in containers. Prefers acidic soils, but will grow in those slightly on the alkaline side.
