Elaeagnus x ebbingei

Elaeagnus x ebbingei, also known as Ebbinge's Silverberry, is a versatile and dense evergreen shrub that provides both visual interest and functionality in the garden. Known for its glossy, dark-green leaves with silvery undersides, this plant showcases a year-round display of colour and texture. Come autumn, it further impresses with small, fragrant white flowers, followed by edible orange-red berries that attract birds and other wildlife.

Ebbinge's Silverberry is a hardy shrub, highly adaptable and tolerating a wide range of conditions including coastal exposure, wind, and poor soil. Reaching a height and spread of around 3.5m, it's an excellent choice for hedging, screening, or as a standalone feature. It responds well to pruning. Another benefit is that it fixes nitrogen into the soil so the plants around it can benefit too.
