Choisya x dewitteana 'Aztec Pearl' | Aztec Pearl Mexican Orange Blossom

$0.00

DESCRIPTION
Choisya × dewitteana 'Aztec Pearl' produces clusters of star-shaped white flowers with golden stamens in mid to late spring, releasing a light citrus fragrance as the blooms open along the stems. The flowers appear among finely divided, narrow leaflets that form elegant, glossy green foliage throughout the year. The slender leaves create a soft, feathery texture along the branches, giving the plant a refined evergreen presence.

This cultivated hybrid traces its heritage to Choisya species native to Mexico. In gardens it brings year-round structure to borders, foundation plantings, and sheltered landscapes, where the fragrant spring flowers and delicate evergreen foliage add texture and seasonal interest.
