Sarcococca

Genus: Sarcococca.

Species: Sarcococca hookeriana.

Planted in a moist shady spot by my kitchen doorway where it is happy - I don't think it would like a dry, sunny position. Elegant evergreen arching habit. Fantastic winter scent although it does not live up to the name 'Christmas Box' as mine never starts flowering properly until January. I am currently trying to propagate more from semi-ripe cuttings.
