Tea Olive (Osmanthus fragrans) is a dense, evergreen shrub or small tree prized for its glossy green foliage and highly fragrant, small white flowers. Often used as a hedge, screen, or specimen plant, Tea Olive adds year-round structure and seasonal fragrance to landscapes. It performs reliably in North Florida and is valued for its low-maintenance growth and ability to adapt to a variety of soil conditions.

Care Needs
• Light: Full sun to part sun
• Water: Water regularly during establishment; drought tolerant once established
