Notes
'Wilcor' Indian-hawthorn (Rhaphiolepis delacourii 'Wilcor') is a shrub for hedges. It is hardy to USDA zone 8, or down to 10°F (-12°C). This plant likes full sun and average moisture. It grows 24 to 48 inches tall and wide, so it suits a low hedge. White flowers open in late spring and early summer and have a fragrance. The leaves stay green all year, and the plant tolerates drought.
Pairs well with Olive, Century plant, and Statice.
