Osmanthus heterophyllus tricolor
I'm never really happy with this shrub. I have tried to give it some shape over the years but it never quite forms the perfect globe I'm after. It's very much like a holly with waxy leaves but without the spikes.
I was weeding that border this afternoon and cutting back a Viburnum Tinus, as well as an Acer which sit behind this much smaller shrub. Lots of things to move in the spring. As the sun started to set, the Osmanthus picked up the glow and looked as good as it's ever looked.
