    If it is a Choisya ternata then about 6 to 8 feet, but it can be pruned to whatever size you want, that is if it is a Choisya!

    I had a huge choicia some years ago, in the garden of a rented house. The blossoms were beautiful cream coloured, and honey scented. The leaves too were quite pungent when bruised or broken.

    I`m not sure it is Choisya. I am leaning more towards Daphne odora vari`, which eventually grows to about 6ft. I think we need to wait for the flowers to be certain eitherway. David.

    I dont know what it is, I've seen it around, but pretty sure its not Choisya.
    David is probably right is my guess.

    Looks more like a Daphne than a Choisya to me.
