Variegated Japanese Mock Orange is a standout medium-sized shrub that brightens the landscape with its elegant, gray-green leaves edged in creamy white. It offers the perfect combination of ornamental foliage and the famously sweet, orange-blossom fragrance of its spring flowers. More compact and slower-growing than the species, it forms a dense, rounded mound that is perfect for creating a fragrant, variegated screen, a stunning specimen, or a light-reflecting backdrop in mixed borders.

• Elegant Cream-Variegated Foliage: Features thick, leathery leaves in soft gray-green with an irregular creamy-white margin, providing year-round brightness.

• Highly Fragrant Blooms: Produces abundant clusters of small, white flowers with an intense, sweet citrus fragrance in late spring.

• Dense, Rounded Habit: Grows into a full, dense, and rounded shrub, reaching 5-10 feet tall and wide over time.

• Coastal & Drought Tolerant: Well-adapted to seaside conditions, salt spray, and drought once its root system is established.

• Versatile Focal Point: Excellent as a standalone specimen, fragrant informal hedge, or for adding light to foundation plantings.
