Frequently Bought Together
Description
Fresh, elegant, and full of movement, Pittosporum tenuifolium ‘Bannow Bay’ is a beautiful evergreen shrub with soft silver-green foliage edged in creamy white. Light-catching and airy in habit, it brings brightness and structure to the garden all year round, making it a lovely choice for softening borders, styling containers, or adding contrast to richer green planting.
Its gently variegated leaves and naturally bushy shape give it a relaxed, coastal feel, while still offering that neat evergreen presence that works so well in designed spaces.
Why we love it
‘Bannow Bay’ has a lovely lightness about it. The variegated foliage lifts darker planting and adds texture without feeling heavy or formal. It’s especially useful in gardens where you want year-round interest, but with a softer, more natural look than traditional clipped evergreens.

Caragh’s Garden Notebook
Plant ‘Bannow Bay’ in a sunny, sheltered spot to enjoy its best colour and shape. It works beautifully with olives, grasses, lavender, and other soft-toned planting where its pale foliage can really shine. In colder gardens, a protected position will help it look its best through winter.
