Elaeagnus 'Quicksilver'

Description

A popular evergreen choice for gardeners in coastal regions where it thrives in the salty air but it does equally well inland too. Grown mainly for its leathery, oval leaves that are covered in a silvery down when young. In June bears masses of yellow, daisy-like flowers. Will tolerate just about any soil, including chalk but it must be well drained. Height and spread 1m, (3ft).
