Description / Elaeagnus Mr. Smooth® Seedless Thornless Silverthorn
A Proven Winners® ColorChoice® Flowering Shrubs variety, Elaeagnus Mr. Smooth® Seedless Thornless Silverthorn.
Elaeagnus Mr. Smooth® Seedless Thornless Silverthorn is a game-changing evergreen for landscapes seeking a durable, low-maintenance foundation or hedge shrub. Developed by Dr. Tom Ranney and the team at NCSU, this selection resolves common complaints about silverthorn by offering a completely thornless and seedless form that eliminates concerns about invasiveness.
With its dense, compact habit and handsome silvery green foliage, Mr. Smooth® brings year-round structure and interest to the garden. In fall, small white flowers emerge, offering a pleasant fragrance and subtle seasonal color. Its tough nature allows it to thrive in challenging conditions, from alkaline and clay soils to sites exposed to salt, drought, or heat. It is also highly deer resistant.
This versatile shrub works beautifully as a natural or pruned hedge, in mass plantings, as a foundation accent, or even in containers. Its aesthetic appeal and adaptability make it a standout choice for homeowners and designers alike. Whether you're creating privacy, filling a difficult site, or adding contrast to flowering companions, Mr. Smooth® delivers high performance with minimal effort.
