Why is Australian Brush Cherry (Eugenia) My Go-To Hedge? | What You Should Know! 

I've only ever heard of "eugenia" referred to as syzygium, or Lilly Pilly. Every day is a school day 😄 I live in Australia, and these are VERY common hedging plants. There are a lot of cultivars, many of which feature no/low fruiting, thrip resistance, and smaller sizing (so you're not constantly pruning). Can highly recommend looking up the cultivars!

Thanks for info about neem oil. I have the curly leaf on some of my trees

Is it fine for cats? My cat likes to get out there and chew on leaves.
