Elaeagnus macrophylla, the broad-leaved oleaster,[2] is a species of flowering plant native to eastern Asia.
Growing to 4 m (13 ft) tall by 8 m (26 ft) broad, it is a substantial spreading evergreen shrub, with round glossy leaves which are silvery when young. Heavily fragrant cream flowers in autumn are followed by red fruit in spring.[3]
Elaeagnus × submacrophylla, formerly known as Elaeagnus × ebbingei, is a hybrid between E. macrophylla and E. pungens. The hybrid and its cultivars are grown in gardens as ornamental plants.[4]
