May 16th, 2023

Pittosporum is a fresh and filling cut green, that is available in various shapes and colour patterns. The stems are trimmed at the bottom and have oval-shaped leaves at the tops. We offer Pittosporum from Israel, Guatemala, Italy and Portugal. Our Italian Pittospora are offered per bunch by weight. The Pittospora from other countries can be ordered per stem.  Our assortment includes varieties such as Pittosporum 'Nevato', 'Nurit', 'Ralphy', 'Nigra', 'Ilan' 'Tenuefoglia' and 'Tobira'. Each variety has their own shape and colour pattern. 
Read about the differences between the varieties below.

'Pittosporum Nevato' from Italy has fine green leaves with white markings. The new 'Pittosporum Nevato' season has just begun. Early in the season the leaf tips are white instead of green, which gives this variety a unique look. This will last for about 5 weeks, as the season progresses the leaves will become more green.

'Pittosporum Nurit' and 'Pittosporum Ilan' are supplied from Israel and Guatemala. 'Pittosporum Nurit' has fairly large, elongated, green leaves. 'Pittosporum Ilan' has white around the edges. 

'Pittosporum Tobira' from Italy has a similar leaf as 'Nurit' and 'Ilan', but without the white edges and the leaves have a deeper green colour. 

'Pittosporum Nigra' from Portugal and Italy is a finer variety with smaller leaves, but has the same white edges as 'Pittosporum Illan'.

'Pittosporum Ralphy' from Italy has crowded branches with green golden leaves that are light gray on the bottom.

'Pittosporum Tenuefoglia', also from Italy, has smaller green lanceolate leaves.
