Indian Hawthorn
Fragrant, Prunable Evergreen Hedge
The Indian Hawthorn (Rhaphiolepis indica) is a versatile evergreen shrub admired for its dense foliage, compact growth, and clusters of fragrant pink or white blooms that appear in spring. Loved by landscapers and gardeners alike, it’s perfect for hedges, borders, and foundation plantings, offering both beauty and function in one easy-to-maintain plant.
The Indian Hawthorn thrives in full sun to partial shade and is highly drought- and salt-tolerant, making it ideal for tropical, coastal, and urban landscapes. Once established, it requires little maintenance and delivers year-round appeal with its glossy green leaves and seasonal flowers. Once the plant becomes thick and mature, it can be pruned and shaped into formal hedges or decorative forms, giving you flexibility to create neat, natural, and flowing borders.
