Description
Commonly known as Sweet Box or Christmas Box, is a hardy shrub that brings winter enchantment to your garden. This easy-to-grow plant boasts inconspicuous flowers that hide beneath its leathery foliage, but what it lacks in showy blooms, it more than makes up for with its powerful, honey-like fragrance, filling the air with delightful scents. Following the fragrant display, this shrub produces long-lasting black berries that add to its charm. Sarcococca is a versatile evergreen, perfect for various garden settings, including shaded borders and large containers. Its low-maintenance nature makes it ideal for challenging areas like dry shade, and it thrives in different light conditions, from sun to semi-shade and even dappled shade. With a height of up to 200cm (78.7 inches) and a spread of up to 100cm (39.4 inches), this delightful shrub is a welcome addition to patio gardens, hedges, ground cover, cottage gardens, scented gardens, and woodland gardens alike. Enjoy the beauty and fragrance of Christmas Box throughout the winter season.
