For optimal care of this handsome evergreen shrub, ensure it receives full to partial sun for best growth. Water the plant when the top 3 inches of soil feel dry, as it is tolerant of drought but thrives with consistent moisture. Its dense, creamy leaf variegation makes it an excellent choice for foundation planting, hedges, or large containers, and it can be shaped into formal topiary forms thanks to its tightly-branched habit. This shrub quickly matures to about 12 feet tall and 6 feet wide, and it adapts well to poor soils, heat, and salt spray, making it a versatile addition to any landscape.
