Sarcococca - Christmas Box

Sarcococca is a genus of evergreen half shrubs. They flower very early in the year, often still in the winter. The flowers are small but have a lovely scent. The flowers are often followed by juicy black berries. Sarcococca likes a spot in the half shade in normal soil. Once established, Sarcococca will stand a period of drought quite well and also more shade. A very good plant for in a difficult location. The low species 'hookeriana var. humilis' has small leaves and forms nice thick mats. If your Sarcococca becomes ugly after some years, just cut it well back and give it some fresh compost in spring.
