One 9B and just bought wheeler’s dwarf. I have mine on a drip system for 10 mins a day. It’s in full sun How long does it take to get established because I’ll probably reduce the amount of water it gets afterwards. Thanks, any additional info for AZ grower is appreciated. 😊
I have to replace my pittosporum because of our freeze in north Texas. You said not to water frequently I have a aprinkler system what should I do about watering them. The other ones were watered twice a week for 15 years. Thank you for the information.
Good video, thank you. My shrubs where planted 6 years ago / zone 8b. I find the bottom of the shrub covers close to the ground extremely well; but it is difficult to get to the drip heads. I also want to prune back the width. What is the best hand pruning method for these shrubs to accomplish this?
Low growing plants like this can be tricky to prune. I just cut what I can, but almost certainly some has rooted in the ground and will need to cut with a shovel.
I have Wheeler’s Dwarf Pittosporum in my front landscape which is mostly shaded for a couple of years now and it stayed low and compact. However, this summer it has gotten very leggy and color is not as vibrant. I’m not sure what has happened. I would appreciate any thoughts or suggestions you might have for me to try.
Could you tell me how often to water newly planted ones? I live in zone 8b in the high desert. I planted them 2 weeks ago. I water every day because of the summer heat and noticed today some leaves are turning brown.
Do you prefer the Wheelers dwarf Pittosporum or the Mojo Pittosporum? I live in zone 8a and they will be planted in front of the porch. Part sun part shade. Need low growing.
Any advice on pruning Wheelers Dwarf Pittosporum?
Great video. Thank you. You answered all the questions I had.

The new growth you are showing can those be cut into cuttings to grow more?
+keysBW Yes, when it hardens off some

I really like them both. Very similar except the variegation. If you need a pop of color go with the Mojo
I love this plant. The only drawback.... very weak limb.

will the non-dwarf version do OK in zone 7b? i’ve frequently seen the dwarf version labeled as zone 8-11, but the non-dwarf labeled as zone 9-11.
I have the best luck with the larger growing variegated variety in zone 7. I wouldn't want it exposed to a lot of winter wind though.
