Sarcococca hookeriana var Digyna


Sarcococca hookeriana var Digyna (Sarcococca hookeriana (Sweet box))

Slow growing, sweetly scented evergreen shrub. Good for shady areas. My favourite of the Sarcococcas, but not as vigorous as Confusa.

Homebird, I think the flowers may be slightly bigger, but you see them better because of the colouring and the less bushy leaves. It is lovely. :) Thanks everyone!

Yes it is lovely, but I must say it does grow a lot slower than my others.

Sadly not Junna, unless you are a fairy! It is a small shrub this one, and fairly slow to grow. Mine is in a pot in shade.
