Pittosporum are evergreen shrubs or trees with simple, leathery leaves and small, often fragrant, 5-petalled flowers, followed by spherical, woody fruits splitting to reveal seeds embedded in sticky pulp. 'Elizabeth' can reach to 4m in height with narrow oval, wavy-edged grey-green leaves that are edged with cream and flushed pink, in all seasons. Scented, dark purple star-shaped flowers are borne from early summer.
