Not very pretty at all, I think maybe it's because of the May 8th holiday!! And that the young plants were left in cardboard all weekend in a warehouse!? I sent you an email with photos.

Description
Elaeagnus x ebbengei Gilt Edge, also known as Oleaster, is a bush forming a dense rounded tuft. From September to October, small silvery-white, highly fragrant flowers appear measuring 1 to 2 cm (0.4 to 0.8 in) in length.
The leaves are evergreen and leathery, 6 to 10 cm (2.4 to 3.9 in) long, dark green with metallic reflections on top and bordered with golden yellow. They are silver on the underside. The orange fruits offered by Elaeagnus x ebbengei are edible if they ripen well until the month of May.
This hardy cultivar can reach a height of 2 m (6 ft 7 in) when fully mature. It is an ideal bush for trimmed hedges, but also for informal hedges, shrub beds, isolated planting, or even in containers. It can be found by the seaside. Elaeagnus x ebbengei Gilt Edge is a cross-breeding between Elaeagnus pungens and Elaeagnus macrophylla.

Planting and care
Elaeagnus x ebbengei Gilt Edge thrives in full sun and partial shade. It tolerates drought and sea spray. When not in a coastal area, place it sheltered from the wind. Plant this bush from November to March, frost-free, in well-drained, light and poor soil, acidic to moderately alkaline. During planting, mix your garden soil with compost. Water generously once or twice a week to promote establishment. For hedging, trim in June and September and remove branches that compromise the plant's symmetry. Elaeagnus x ebbengei Gilt Edge is prone to coral disease and scale insects.

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.
