[one_half_last]
Pittosporum Miss Muffet is a small shrub with tightly compacted leaves that make it a great plant for many gardens especially Japanese style designs. It has fragrant cream flowers that appear in spring. Situate this variety in a half sun position for best results. | Ficus microcarpa hillii 'Emerald'
Ficus 'Emerald' has a glossier and deeper, emerald green foliage compared with that of the 'Flash' and 'Hill's Weeping' ficus. This rich green foliage matches well with Buxus English Box, particularly in a formal setting.
'Emerald' ficus are quite tolerant of poor soil conditions and hot or windy weather conditions, growing well in both full sun to part shade positions. It does not, however, like the touch of frost.
See our Ficus Hedging & Screening Factsheet here for more about the different Ficus varieties!
