The detail
Choisya 'Greenfingers' is a distinctive and elegant evergreen shrub prized for its slender, finger-like bright green foliage that adds a fine, feathery texture to any garden setting. A member of the Mexican Orange Blossom family, this variety produces clusters of sweetly fragrant, star-shaped white flowers in late spring to early summer, often followed by a welcome second flush in autumn. Its compact, bushy habit and year-round foliage make it a versatile addition to borders, patio containers, and mixed planting schemes.
