Noble Lady Tea Olive is a large, dense reblooming evergreen shrub with larger dark green toothed foliage that emerges bright pink and transitions to white before maturing green. The new growth color is more intense with more sun, and flushes of new growth continue throughout the growing season extended the color. Its highly fragrant white flower clusters will bloom from early fall to spring whenever daytime temperatures range between 55 to 70 degrees F, and are followed by small edible fruits. Best planted in part sun with acidic rich and moist well-drained soils. Drought tolerant once established.
