Large upright shrub with glossy green leaves. Graceful weeping habit. Through winter and spring it has creamy-white flowers on the tips of the branches. Insects and birds love the nectar. Prune back after flowering for the best shape. Good for hedging. Prefers a sunny site with well drained soil, avoid very frosty sites.
