Pittosporum heterophyllum is an evergreen shrub, also known as Chinese Pittosporum, with glossy, dark green leaves and fragrant, pale yellow flowers that bloom in late spring to summer. It is a medium-sized, rounded shrub that can reach 2–3 meters in height and is often used as a hedge or screen. The plant is cold-hardy in zones 7-9 and thrives in well-drained soil in sunny or partially shaded locations. 
Physical description
Foliage: Densely packed, evergreen, and glossy. Leaves are typically elongated, sometimes wavy at the edges, and can vary in shape, including ovate, obovate, or lance-shaped.
Flowers: Small, pale yellow, and highly fragrant, blooming in late spring to early summer. The flowers are often described as smelling like orange blossom.
Fruit: Small capsules that contain seeds. 
Growth and care
Growth habit: A medium-sized shrub with a rounded or mounded shape.
Size: Can reach up to 2–3 meters in height and 1.5–2 meters in width.
Light: Prefers full sun to partial shade.
Soil: Requires well-drained soil.
Pruning: Can be pruned after blooming to maintain shape and size. As blossoms form on old growth, pruning should be done with this in mind.
Hardiness: Hardy in USDA zones 7-9, making it more cold-tolerant than Pittosporum tobira. It may need winter protection in colder climates. 
Uses
Screening and hedges: Its dense foliage makes it an excellent choice for hedges and screens.
Landscaping: Works well in clumps or as a backdrop for other flowering plants.
Specimen plant: Can be pruned into a small tree-like form to create a focal point.
