Pittosporum tenuifolium 'Gold Star' is a stunning evergreen shrub that captivates garden enthusiasts with its striking golden-yellow leaves, which are beautifully accented by dark green centers. This vibrant foliage not only adds a splash of color to outdoor spaces throughout the year but also serves as an excellent focal point in garden designs or as part of mixed borders. Its unique appearance makes it a popular choice for those looking to enhance the visual appeal of their landscapes.

The leaves of 'Gold Star' are ovate in shape and feature wavy edges, creating a dynamic texture that complements its vivid coloration. In late spring, the shrub produces small, fragrant flowers that are a deep maroon, adding another layer of interest to its overall presentation. This delightful combination of foliage and blooms makes Pittosporum tenuifolium 'Gold Star' a versatile addition to any garden, whether it’s a formal setting or a more casual arrangement.

This resilient shrub thrives in a variety of conditions, preferring full sun to partial shade and well-drained soil. It is particularly tolerant of coastal environments and urban pollution, making it an ideal choice for diverse planting situations. Hardy across the UK, it can endure temperatures as low as -15°C, ensuring its survival through colder months. To maintain its shape and promote a bushier growth habit, occasional pruning is recommended. When fully grown, 'Gold Star' can reach a height of approximately 200 cm (6.5 ft) and a spread of about 150 cm (5 ft), making it a substantial presence in any garden setting.

Growing Information

Grow Pittosporum in any rich,fertile but well drained soil. Choose a position with shelter from cold winter winds in sun or semi shade - the best leaf colour will be produced when grown in full sun.

Live Plants

Suttons strives to ensure that all its plants are delivered to you in the perfect condition for planting. While the majority of our nursery plants cope well with slight delays in intransit, sadly, the time it takes to deliver to certain locations in the UK means that we can't guarantee this for some of our smaller plug products and tender bedding and vegetable lines, which do not respond well to the extra journey time. So regretfully while we offer the majority of our live plant offering nationwide, we are unable to ship plugs, begging plants and tender vegetable plants to the following areas: HS, IV41-IV49, IV51, IV55-56, KW15-KW17, PA34, PA41-48, PA60-PA78, PA80, PH40-PH44, TR21-TR24, ZE1-ZE3.

What our customers say

"Very impressed with the quality of leek and broad bean seeds you sent. Excellent germination and look forward to a bumper crop. Will certainly be back."

E. Smyth

“I bought all my seeds, potatoes, etc. from your catalogue last year for my new ‘larger’ vegetable garden. I have to say I have never had such success in the garden. The germination was excellent; the quality of plant stock and produce is superb."

Sadie

“I am compelled to write to you and your staff for the exemplary service provided by your company, in an age where the word and term ‘service’ has lost its meaning.”
