Description

Elegant, compact, and beautifully understated, Pittosporum ‘Silver Ball’ is a lovely evergreen shrub grown for its naturally rounded shape and soft silver-green foliage. It brings light, structure, and a calm, contemporary feel to the garden, making it a perfect choice for pots, pathways, and stylish border planting.
Its tidy, mounded habit means it holds its shape with very little effort, giving you that clipped, architectural look without the maintenance of traditional topiary.
Why we love it
What makes ‘Silver Ball’ so special is its colour. The subtle silver tones lift surrounding planting beautifully, softening darker greens and pairing especially well with stone, gravel, and Mediterranean-style schemes. It’s one of those plants that adds quiet sophistication and looks good in every season.
Where it works best
Ideal for containers, sunny borders, courtyards, gravel gardens, and entrance planting, Pittosporum ‘Silver Ball’ thrives in a sheltered, well-drained position. It’s especially effective where you want evergreen structure with a softer, lighter touch.
What to expect
  • Compact, naturally rounded evergreen shrub
  • Soft silver-green foliage
  • Low maintenance and easy to shape
  • Excellent for pots and small spaces
  • Perfect for contemporary and Mediterranean-style gardens
Caragh’s Garden Notebook
Plant in full sun or light shade in free-draining soil, and give it a sheltered spot to protect it from cold winds. ‘Silver Ball’ looks especially striking repeated through a planting scheme or used in matching pots by a doorway for a balanced, elegant finish.
