Growing to 15-20' tall and 6-10' wide, \u003cem\u003eOsmanthus x fortunei \u003c\/em\u003eis popular as a hedge, foundation, or screen selection, but also works great as a specimen plant with its relatively large size.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eOsmanthus x fortunei\u003c\/em\u003e blooms from the end of summer into the fall, and its fragrant flowers attract a number of pollinators. With its young leaves being bright green with deeply toothed margins and older leaves being dark green and widely lobed, \u003cem\u003eOsmanthus x fortunei \u003c\/em\u003ealways keeps things interesting for ornamental displays while simultaneously preventing deer browsing. For the most success, plant your Fortune's osmanthus in a location with full sun to part shade, moist well-draining soil, and plenty of room to spread out, and don't worry about salt or drought, as this false holly can handle both like a champ.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNote: While the parent species of \u003cem\u003eOsmanthus x fortunei, \u003c\/em\u003e\u003cem\u003eO. fragrans \u003c\/em\u003eand \u003cem\u003eO. heterophyllus\u003c\/em\u003e, have been noted as possibly invasive in the United States, Fortune's Osmanthus is a male hybrid cultivar and its likely sterile, meaning that it is less like to spread via seed.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Unity Church Hill Nursery, LLC","offers":[{"title":"7 Gallon","offer_id":51224201822483,"sku":"OsmafoUN#7","price":79.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0814\/3283\/8419\/files\/Osmanthusfortunei2025-05-17800x800.jpg?v=1747597680","url":"https:\/\/unitychurchhillnursery.com\/products\/osmanthus-x-fortunei-fortunes-osmathus-unity-grown","provider":"Unity Church Hill Nursery, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
