Elaeagnus x ebbingei is known for its fantastic evergreen nature. In the spring, new leaves emerge with a silvery hue, which fades to a beautiful dark green. The undersides of the leaves retain their silver tone. In the fall, this plant blooms with showy, fragrant white flowers, providing one last hurrah before winter. Reddish brown fruits develop in the spring and are edible – though you might have to race the birds! Elaeagnus x ebbingei is a shrub ideal for hedges or foundational plantings with its drought tolerant nature and beautiful foliage.  

Ebbinge's Silverberry Care 

Plant Elaeagnus x ebbingei in well-drained soils, and water regularly until established. Fertilize if desired in the spring, and prune after flowering if required.

Ebbinge's Silverberry Spacing

For a dense hedge, space Elaeagnus x ebbingei 8 to 9 feet apart on-center. For foundational plantings, plant shrubs at least 10 to 11 feet apart center-to-center.

    Hedge

    Posted by AJ on Sep 08, 2017

    I bought 6 of these plants for a hedge in late August and they arrived within a week. The plant was in terrific shape, with only a few leaves that fell off during shipping. Now in early September, it is already starting to grow a few small blooms on it and is doing great. I can't wait to see what this plant will look like next spring!
