RE: Native Laurel, if only all weeds were this good

Pittosporum undulatum

Description
Victorian box is a large shrub or medium sized tree that grows 30-40 ft. tall and wide, but is often maintained as a lower screen or hedge plant. It has dark green leaves, cream-white flowers and small orange berries, which can be a nuisance but also attract birds. Native to the subtropical rainforests and is an understory plant in Eucalyptus forests in New South Whales, Australia.

It is considered by some to be invasive in riparian habitats in the San Francisco Bay area and the south coast of California. It occasionally reseeds in gardens. The Calflora map shows its current distribution in California outside of horticulture.
