National Plant Network 1 gal. Illicium Star Flower Orion

National Plant Network's grower approved selections take the guesswork out of gardening! Star Flower Orion' Illicium is a compact evergreen shrub prized for its glossy, dense green foliage and tidy habit that provides year-round structure and privacy in shaded or woodland landscapes. It thrives in USDA Zones 7 through 10 in part shade to deep shade with moist, well-drained, slightly acidic soil, and adapts well once established. Use it as a foundation shrub, shady-border accent, or understory screen where its evergreen leaves create a lush backdrop. In warmer climates it also works well in large, shady containers for terraces or patios needing low maintenance greenery.
