Pittosporum Multiflorum (Orange Thorn) is a hardy Australian native shrub or small tree valued for its dense, glossy green foliage and naturally rounded growth habit. In spring, clusters of small creamy-yellow flowers appear among the foliage, followed by attractive orange capsules that split open to reveal bright sticky seeds, adding seasonal interest and providing a valuable food source for native birds. Its tough nature and attractive appearance make it an excellent choice for native gardens, screening, or as a feature plant.
Highly adaptable and easy to maintain, Pittosporum Multiflorum (Orange Thorn) thrives in a range of well-drained soils and performs well in both full sun and partial shade. Drought tolerant once established, it provides year-round evergreen structure while responding well to pruning for shaping or informal hedging. Combining ornamental appeal with resilience and wildlife value, this versatile native is an excellent addition to residential and commercial landscapes.
