Sarcococca hookeriana var. digyma

Whilst Sarcococca hookeriana var. digyma exhibits attractive, lance shaped leaves and delicate purple highlights in some of its cultivated forms, it is without question the scent that makes it so special.

Whilst Sarcococca hookeriana var. digyma's flowers are small and insignificant to look at, the potency of its perfume will stop you in your tracks on a cold winter's day and make you look around for the source.

In addition to this, Sarcococca hookeriana var. digyma is evergreen, neatly compact, reaching only a meter or so and robust, tolerating a range of conditions including heavy shade.

I love using it in front garden designs.
