It was a very popular plant in Victorian times, and the birds love it!

I find it strange that we have so many plants in common, this is one I have in my front garden next to a choisya `sundance`.

Unfortunately Stroller I think I have killed off my Choisya. I delayed planting it and put the pot in water (as at the time it was very dry)...it is in place now but looking very very sad. the Pheasant berry is great fun though isn't it, always reminds me of rather classy earrings!
