Elaeagnus, also known by the common names thorny olive, spiny oleaster and silverthorn, are attractive shrubs that are native to Asia. They make good structural plants, particularly the evergreen varieties, and they work well as hedging. But one of their biggest selling points is that they’re salt tolerant, making them a reliable choice for coastal gardens.
Elaeagnus pungens 'Maculata' is a large and hardy evergreen shrub, bearing bright golden leaves with large, irregular green margins. It makes a colourful winter foliage plant and is excellent for using as screening and in winter flower arrangements.
Grow Elaeagnus pungens 'Maculata' in well-drained, fertile soil in full sun or light shade.
