A premium evergreen hedge with glossy green foliage and fragrant white flowers. Ideal for formal boundaries, front gardens, pool areas and privacy screening.

Worth knowing
A larger pot gives you a more established starting plant — not an instant hedge. Final density depends on spacing, the nursery batch and care in the first season.

What to look out for
The most common issues we see on Murraya hedges around Sydney — how to spot them early, and what to do about them.
Scale insects
Signs: Small brown or white oval bumps clustered along stems and leaf undersides; sticky honeydew.
Remedy: Wipe or hose off light infestations, then apply horticultural oil to smother remaining scale. Repeat after three weeks.
Sooty mould
Signs: Black dusty film coating the leaf surface, usually following scale or aphid honeydew.
Remedy: Treat the sap-sucking pest first, then wash the foliage with a soapy water solution; the mould flakes away as new growth comes through.
