'Beni Kin Mokusei' Red Flowering Tea Olive - 3 Gallon Pot
A rare selection of Osmanthus fragrans aurianticus, 'Beni Kin Mokusei' translates to "red flowering osmanthus." Upon seeing the flowers for the first time we noticed that they were more orange than red in color, but a deeper orange than the species. To be fair, the word "Beni" in a plant variety name can mean red, orange or pink in Japanese. We also noticed that the individual flowers are larger than the species and equally as fragrant, and the leaves are larger as well. Due to the presence of carotenoids in the flowers, some say that the orange flowering tea olives have a more pleasant fragrance than the white. We've smelled them both. It might be all in our head, but we think the orange does smell a little sweeter, like candy. You can grow this one as a large shrub or small tree that reportedly will reach a height of 10 to 15 feet tall and 8 to 10 feet wide. In fall, one plant can fill a back or front yard with sweet aroma. The flowers are edible and also used in perfumes. You'll see why when you plant one! Get all the details below
