Home & Garden Design, Inc., Danna Cain, ASLA on Nov 12, 2013Elaeagnus. Such a lovely fragrance. The shrub itself though is not suitable near the house because it grows so fast and looks "messy" by most urban and suburban standards. Traditionally this was used to mark property lines or divide pastures because the "whips" become intertwined making the hedge impenetrable.Helpful Reply
