Sarcococca hookeriana var. digyna
For a really powerful winter fragrance Sarcococca hookeriana digyna will not disappoint, as it fills your garden with a dramatic aroma right through the cold season from clusters of small, creamy-white flowers. Extremely tough and resilient, Sweet Box can be grown as a low hedge similar to other Box, but works just as well in borders and as ground cover too. Christmas Box has purple-tinged stems with beautiful deep green, leathery, weatherproof foliage, and after the blooms disappear, they are then replaced by black berries for continued interest in your garden. To enjoy the wonderful scent plant in a large patio container near the back door. Height: 1.5m (5′). Spread: 2m (6′).
