Olive Martini Elaeagnus - Elaeagnus x ebbengi ‘Viveleg’ PP20177 – is a unique and beautiful shrub to have in your landscape. In the spring, the leaves take on a silvery hue. As they mature, gold-edged evergreen leaves create a spectacular display and persist through the winter. A stable, sturdy appearance makes this shrub ideal as a hedge or foundational planting in landscape beds.

Olive Martini Elaeagnus Care

Plant Olive Martini™ Elaeagnus in well-drained soil and water regularly until established. Fertilize annually in the early spring, and prune as needed to retain the desired shape.

Olive Martini Elaeagnus Spacing

For a formal hedge, plant Olive Martini™ Elaeagnus approximately 10 feet center-to-center. For a more informal foundational planting, consider spacing this shrub at least 15 feet apart on center.

Plant Addicts Warranty - 1 Year (Extra Purchase Required)

We encourage all plant lovers to purchase the Plant Addicts Warranty whether you’re new or an expert.

The warranty is purchased on a per plant basis and must be purchased at the same time as the plant purchase.

Simply let us know if your plant has died within one year of receiving it and we’ll get you a new one shipped out.

    new plant in my yard

    Posted by Mary M on Oct 05, 2017

    Saw this at a friends house and wanted one for my yard. Came in great condition besides the soil being a little dry. Now I just have to wait a few years so mine is as big as my friends!

    Silver

    Posted by Judith on Oct 03, 2017

    I wanted to create a silver looking hedge for some privacy in my backyard and to create a good background color for other plants. Hopefully this works out. Haven't received the plant yet, so I can't review that part yet.
