Care & Size Guidance
Pittosporum tenuifolium ‘Victoria’ is a shrub that tends to grow low, producing a dense globe like shape about 1 m in diameter. This makes it ideal for low hedges and planters.
In winter, the white edges of the leaves turn pinkish purple. When planted in containers, the Pittosporum tenuifolium should be watered frequently as its roots don’t go very deep in the soil.
Feed in spring and summer with a high nitrogen fertiliser or a slow release balanced fertiliser for the plant to thrive.
It may require protection in winter with a fleece jacket to keep frost away.
