Dwarf Sweetbox
Sarcococca
Sweetbox
This tiptop Himalayan denizen lends evergreen finery and heavenly winter fragrance to a shady locale. Crafting a low, well-groomed textural ground cover, slowly creeping stolons sprout 18 in. stems clad in lustrous, narrow dark green leaves. Copious, tiny white flowers and round blue-black fruit heighten allure. Tailor-made for hedging, enhancing entrance ways or carpeting the woodland garden, Dwarf Sweetbox keeps deer at bay plus appreciates regular watering and an annual shearing to sustain its dashing appearance.
Blooms March–April
Size: 18" – 2' 0" high x 3' 0" – 4' 0" wide.
