Escallonia iveyi, Murraya paniculata or Osmanthus delavayi?
Trying to choose a flowering hedge for our front garden to plant along a 1.2m high railing fence. We are in Victoria. I'm after a soft rather than a formal hedge, but still with dense, vibrant foliage, and that doesn't tend to become 'leggy'. Hoping not to have to prune it too much to keep it to around the 1.2-1.5m mark. I've seen full-grown examples of the Murraya about, and it looks lovely, but I'm concerned it will be a lot of work to keep to the desired height (although that may not be such an issue in this colder climate)? I've only seen the other two in images on the net (always so hard to judge what they are really like) or small individual plants for sale at the nursery (again, hard to picture what it will look like as a mature hedge in flower). Any advice would be welcome :)
