Beautiful shrubby tree native to Chile. Grows variably 15 - 25 and may be pruned to desired size and may also be grown as a Bonsai. Hardy to zone 8 ( 15F ). Its small green / yellow flowers produce the wonderful scent of vanilla. Lush with glossy oval leaves. Small orange-red berries are edible. Grow in sun or light shade. Small seeds are about the size of Kiwi seeds. Broadcast the seeds onto the surface of your soil mixture which should be humus rich but well draining with some coarse sand added to it so it has sufficient porosity. Keep damp but not wet. 1 - 3 months to germinate. Bright light to light shade.
