Oleaster Goldrim
A fine, variegated oleaster, Elaeagnus pungens Goldrim is a large, often spiny, evergreen shrub with a dense, bushy habit. The glossy, elliptical leaves are deep green, with a narrow margin of golden-yellow which really lifts the appearance of the shrub. Small, beautifully fragrant, white flowers are borne in autumn, very attractive to pollinators at a time of year when nectar and pollen supplies are running low. These are followed by small brown fruits which gradually turn red. An easy shrub, and drought-tolerant once established, oleaster Goldrim can also be used for hedging, and is good on banks and slopes.
