Choisya ternata, commonly known as Mexican Orange Blossom, is a popular evergreen shrub valued for its glossy, aromatic, deep green foliage and clusters of fragrant, star-shaped white flowers. Blooming mainly in spring, with a possible repeat flush in autumn, its citrus-scented blossoms attract bees and other pollinators. This rounded, bushy shrub is easy to grow, tolerates light shade, and thrives in well-drained soil. Choisya ternata is drought-tolerant once established and makes an excellent choice for hedges, borders, or as a specimen plant. Its year-round foliage and sweetly scented blooms add both structure and sensory appeal to gardens.
