Wheeler's Dwarf pittosporum forms a dense, naturally rounded mound of glossy evergreen leaves, staying around 2 to 3 feet tall without shearing. In season it offers small white flowers with a light orange-blossom fragrance.

Use it as a low border, foundation plant, mass groundcover, or container evergreen in sun to part sun with decent drainage. In Birmingham, a spot sheltered from harsh winter wind, near the house or a south-facing wall, keeps the foliage at its best year-round.
