From Ecolage.com: Russian Olive, Elaeagnus pungens, Wonderfully fragrant evergreen shrub! Tough, easy to grow and low-maintenance. Prefers full to partial sun and fertile, well-drained soils. Best known for its fast, vigorous growth, fragrant flowers and edible fruit. Excellent choice for nosy neighbors. Size: Premium 3 Gallon Container $39.95. I purchased the Sweet Olive from them and it arrived very healthy and is growing rapidly. |
