Pinball Blizzard™ Mexican Orange (Choisya)

(Mexican Orange) Bring a burst of bright foliage and fragrance to your garden with Choisya Pinball Blizzard™. Commonly known as Mexican orange, this evergreen shrub is prized for its fragrant canopy of early season color. In spring, clusters of starry white, citrus-scented flowers cover the plant, filling the air with fragrance and attracting pollinators like bees. A lighter flush of blooms often returns throughout the summer to early fall. Compact and tidy, Pinball Blizzard grows about 3–5 feet tall and wide, making it easy to fit into borders, foundation plantings, or mixed evergreen screens. Its naturally rounded shape means very little pruning is required, and its bold foliage provides season-long interest and fragrance even when not in bloom. Hardy in zones 7–10, this choisya thrives in full sun to part shade, though it benefits from some afternoon shade in hotter climates. It prefers well-drained soil and, once established, shows good drought tolerance. No need to worry about the rabbits with this rabbit resistant shrub. Low-maintenance by nature, it requires only occasional watering in dry spells. Blooms on new and old growth, pruning as needed for shape. A slow-release fertilizer in spring can encourage healthy growth and more flowers. With fragrant blossoms, evergreen foliage, and eye-catching variegation, Choisya Pinball Blizzard™ brings both color and charm to the landscape. A Proven Winners® Color Choice Shrub!
