Due to the winter weather, orders from these states will ship in the spring, April to May: CA, CO, IA, ID, KS, ME, MI, MN, MT, ND, NE, NH, NV, OR, SD, UT, VT, WA, WI, WY. And due to the extreme cold and wind which we experienced through the Christmas holidays of December 2022, many Osmanthus varieties won't be shipped until we are assured there is no cold damage. This may be as late as April or May, 2023. We may choose to delay shipping other plants as well.

O. Spring Chinese Holly. The yellow margin variegated leaves have a silvery-green center on this male cultivar. I think this was introduced by Tom Dodd of Mobile, AL some years ago, and it is not "Oh spring!", it is named for a gentlemen that he knew. If you are a variegated plant freak, you will definitely want this plant. One is enough to accent a mixed border. It can get up to 10' in height with a 6' spread. I have seen it growing in full sun with no leaf burn, but it does quite well in fairly heavy shade. The leaf shape is the same as the species with its 7 or so vicious spines.
