Description
Choisya ternata 'Sundance' is a variety of Mexican Orange. It is a compact bush with a rounded habit and evergreen foliage, aromatic, golden yellow in spring and then tender green, making it a bright focal point in the garden. The small pure white flowers, delicately scented, bloom in spring and again in autumn. It is an excellent bush for our gardens, robust and drought-resistant, easy to grow in any well-drained soil and in all exposures in a not-too-cold climate.
The Mexican Orange 'Sundance' is a horticultural variety whose species is native to Mexico, it belongs to the Rutaceae family, like citrus trees. Sundance is a small bush that reaches an average height of 2m (6.6ft) with a spread of 1.50m (3.3ft). Its rounded and compact habit bears evergreen, opposite leaves, divided into 3 or 5 leaflets, shiny, 6cm (2.4in) long and golden. When crushed, they release a strong scent of orange peel. At the end of spring, star-shaped white flowers, 3cm (1.2in) in diameter, appear, giving off a delicate and pleasant fragrance that attracts many pollinating insects. The flowering often repeats in September-October. It is also noted for its good hardiness once well established, below -15°C (5°F).
Choisya ternata 'Sundance' adapts well in any light and not too chalky soil, well-drained, in a warm, sunny and position, sheltered from cold winds. After the first flowering, light pruning helps maintain a compact habit and promote a second flowering in autumn, although it also occurs naturally. Mexican Orange 'Sundance' can be planted as a standalone in a strategic location to enjoy its delicate fragrance or as a natural hedge with a spacing of 80cm (31.5in). It is also easy to grow in a container on a terrace. It is an asset in an exotic garden with its appearance and scent.

Planting and care
The 'Sundance' Mexican Orange Bush is best planted in spring in a light and well-drained soil. Resistant to -15°C (5°F), choose a warm location, in full sun and sheltered from cold winds, so it can grow even north of the Loire. Improve heavy or clayey soil, lighten your substrate with sand if necessary, as waterlogged soils in winter can affect the hardiness of this bush. In summer, water and mulch to maintain soil fertility. For a natural hedge, plant one bush every 80cm (31.5in). On a terrace, plant it in a container at least 30cm (11.8in) deep and keep the soil moist during summer.

Hardiness is the lowest winter temperature a plant can endure without suffering serious damage or even dying. However, hardiness is affected by location (a sheltered area, such as a patio), protection (winter cover) and soil type (hardiness is improved by well-drained soil).
The flowering period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions located in USDA zone 8 (France, the United Kingdom, Ireland, the Netherlands, etc.)
It will vary according to where you live:- In zones 9 to 10 (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), flowering will occur about 2 to 4 weeks earlier.
- In zones 6 to 7 (Germany, Poland, Slovenia, and lower mountainous regions), flowering will be delayed by 2 to 3 weeks.
- In zone 5 (Central Europe, Scandinavia), blooming will be delayed by 3 to 5 weeks.
In temperate climates, pruning of spring-flowering shrubs (forsythia, spireas, etc.) should be done just after flowering.
Pruning of summer-flowering shrubs (Indian Lilac, Perovskia, etc.) can be done in winter or spring.
In cold regions as well as with frost-sensitive plants, avoid pruning too early when severe frosts may still occur.
The planting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions located in USDA zone 8 (France, United Kingdom, Ireland, Netherlands).
It will vary according to where you live:
- In Mediterranean zones (Marseille, Madrid, Milan, etc.), autumn and winter are the best planting periods.
- In continental zones (Strasbourg, Munich, Vienna, etc.), delay planting by 2 to 3 weeks in spring and bring it forward by 2 to 4 weeks in autumn.
- In mountainous regions (the Alps, Pyrenees, Carpathians, etc.), it is best to plant in late spring (May-June) or late summer (August-September).
The harvesting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions in USDA zone 8 (France, England, Ireland, the Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...) fruit and vegetable harvests are likely to be delayed by 3-4 weeks.
In warmer areas (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), harvesting will probably take place earlier, depending on weather conditions.
The sowing periods indicated on our website apply to countries and regions within USDA Zone 8 (France, UK, Ireland, Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...), delay any outdoor sowing by 3-4 weeks, or sow under glass.
In warmer climes (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), bring outdoor sowing forward by a few weeks.
