Pittosporum tenuifolium ‘Screen Between’ — Slim Privacy Divider
Pittosporum tenuifolium ‘Screen Between’ is a compact upright hedging plant developed for creating privacy in tight spaces between homes. It forms a dense vertical screen of fine mid-green foliage that stays narrow while still reaching useful height, making it ideal for modern residential blocks where width is limited.
