Shrub # 1 - Choisya Ternata Sundance

Cycling through the garden (metaphorically - it's not THAT big), clockwise from bottom left, I have planted a Choisya Sundance for its glossy yellow evergreen leaves, almost lime coloured new growth, and soft prolific divided 3 leaflets.

Apparently also known as 'Mexican Orange Blossom', it has fragrant, showy clusters of white flowers later on.

This is the first plant we can see out of the upstairs window along the line of the left border. It's also quite a shady spot due the nieghbour's high fence but the Choisya looks quite low maintenance to me.
