Pittosporum tobira<\/p>\n
Pittosporo<\/p>\n
Pittosporaceae<\/p>\n
originally from \u00a0southern \u00a0China, \u00a0Japan, \u00a0Taiwan \u00a0and \u00a0Korea.<\/p>\n
Used in many countries around the world with mild winters, such as the Mediterranean ones.<\/p>\n
evergreen<\/p>\n
non-poisonous but not edible fruits<\/p>\n
it can reach ten meters in height in its areas of origin, while in Italy it rarely exceeds three or four metres.<\/span><\/p>\n 3 \u2013 4 m.<\/p>\n arboreal or shrubby<\/p>\n The leaves are persistent, leathery, with a shiny blade, obovate in shape and dark green in colour, alternate, shiny and oblong.<\/p>\n The flowers, with five white petals at the opening, then take on a cream color and finally light yellow, gathered in umbrella-shaped tops 5-8 cm wide.<\/p>\n In Italy the plant flowers in March-May.<\/p>\n The fruits are red and contained in small \u00a0green capsules that turn brown as they ripen.<\/p>\n The bark of Pitosforo is medium dark, thin and cracks very late. Alternating black and brown surfaces.<\/p>\n In Italy, pittosporum is cultivated only as an ornamental plant.<\/p>\n yes intense<\/p>\n It requires little and sporadic cultivation care<\/p>\n It tolerates summer heat without problems, and also winter cold, but not below -10 \u00b0C<\/p>\n full sun or partial shade.<\/p>\n medium-textured soil tending towards compact. Fears water stagnation. It tolerates calcareous soils poorly.<\/p>\n pH 6,0 \u2013 7,5. It has little tolerance for soils with a highly basic pH, which are often responsible for leaf chlorosis.<\/p>\n Naturalized in most Italian regions, including islands. In marine locations in central Italy, in \u00a0Southern Italy, in \u00a0Sardinia, in \u00a0Sicily \u00a0and in \u00a0Liguria.<\/p>\n Irrigate medium-abundantly in spring-summer if it doesn’t rain for a long time; scarce in winter.<\/p>\n Pittosporum reproduces by seed and semi-woody cuttings.<\/p>\n after flowering and you will have to proceed to reduce the foliage by about a third, eliminating the terminal part of the foliage<\/p>\n It is naturally resistant to parasitic attacks. Attacks by \u00a0cochineal insects\u00a0and in particular by\u00a0cotonous scale insects\u00a0can be very serious if action is not taken promptly.<\/p>\n However, it tolerates calcareous soils with a highly basic pH, which are often responsible for leaf chlorosis<\/p>\n The name\u00a0Pittosporum\u00a0derives from the Greek\u00a0pitta\u00a0= “pitch” and\u00a0sporos\u00a0= “seed”; it therefore means “resinous seeds”, to allude to the fact that the seeds of this genus are covered in a sticky substance similar to resin. The specific name\u00a0tobira\u00a0is the transcription of the Japanese term\u00a0tobira, abbreviation of the expression\u00a0tobira no ki, which means “door tree”, as it was customary to attach twigs of this plant to the door jambs, as an \u00a0apotropaic talisman.<\/p>\n They are plants much visited by \u00a0bees \u00a0for their \u00a0nectar \u00a0and, if present in sufficient quantity, can produce excellent \u00a0honey.<\/p>\n Resistance to salt and urban pollution.<\/p>\n Two interesting varieties are the “Nanum” perfect for small gardens, which has dimensions of around one meter in height and one and a half meters in width and the variegated which is instead as large as the Pittosporum tobira and certainly more delicate, but can resolve points a a little dark with an original solution and with the wonderful characteristics of the original plant already described.<\/p>\n it is not used.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_3″ _builder_version=”4.27.2″ _module_preset=”default” custom_padding=”0px||0px||true|false” global_colors_info=”{}”][dmg_masonry_gallery gallery=”6928,6944,6938,6936,6930,6934,6942″ columns=”1″ gutter=”370″ zoom_hover=”on” images_size=”dmg_image_extra_large” hover_overlay_effect=”nothing” columns_tablet=”2″ columns_phone=”1″ columns_last_edited=”on|desktop” gutter_tablet=”20″ gutter_phone=”20″ gutter_last_edited=”on|desktop” module_class=”gallery-schede-botaniche” _builder_version=”4.27.3″ _module_preset=”default” title_text_align=”left” custom_margin=”||||false|false” custom_padding=”||||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/dmg_masonry_gallery][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ admin_label=”Consiglio MDG” _builder_version=”4.27.0″ _module_preset=”default” custom_margin=”30px||20px||false|false” custom_padding=”10px|20px|20px|20px|false|true” border_radii=”on|15px|15px|15px|15px” border_width_all=”4px” border_color_all=”#d5de75″ global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.27.0″ _module_preset=”default” width=”100%” custom_padding=”0px||0px||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.27.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.3″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n Due to their rusticity they are often used in public spaces, if you happen to walk in your town or city, pay attention, you will surely see some of them.
