Elaeagnus x ebbingei "Compacta", commonly known as compact oleaster, is an evergreen tree trained as a full standard with a neat, rounded head of dense foliage atop a clear stem. The leaves are oval, glossy dark green above with a distinctive silvery-grey underside and scaly texture, giving the canopy a two-tone shimmer as it moves in the breeze. Its compact, tidy growth habit makes it well suited to formal planting schemes where a smaller, more manageable head is required compared to the species type. Small, creamy-white, tubular flowers appear in autumn, tucked among the foliage. Though unassuming in appearance, they release a strong, sweet fragrance that can perfume a wide area, making this tree particularly valuable for autumn interest when little else is flowering. The flowers are followed by small orange-red fruits in spring, adding a further point of seasonal interest. This tree is highly tolerant of coastal conditions, withstanding salt-laden winds and exposed sites with ease, and also performs well in a range of soil types including clay and loamy ground. It is a useful option for gardens seeking year-round structure, screening or a specimen tree with a tidy, uniform shape that requires minimal maintenance to retain its compact form.
