Murraya paniculata
Commonly known as Orange Jasmine or Mock Orange, Murraya paniculata is a dense evergreen shrub with lush, glossy foliage. The new growth emerges in a light green shade, while the mature leaves turn a rich dark green. In spring and summer, it produces small, fragrant white flowers.
Cultural
Prefers a position with full sun to part shade, with more sun promoting a longer and more abundant flowering season. Thrives in well-drained, rich, moist soil. Prune after flowering or to maintain shape. Fertilize in spring.
Landscape Uses
Ideal for formal and informal hedges due to its dense foliage and ability to be shaped, its highly fragrant flowers also make it a great choice for planting near living areas or pathways. It thrives in Urban Lush environments when planted with Philodendron ‘Xanadu’ and Ligularia reniformis, or in formal landscapes with traditional favorites like Azalea 'Alba Magnifica' and Camellia 'Setsugekka'.
