This low to medium sized shade tolerant shrub provides much needed winter blossom and scent from male plants and is followed by attractive berries on the female form. Attractive foliage and form makes Skimmias ideal as ground cover in problematic shady areas.

Cultivation tips: Preferring a well drained neutral to acidic soil that is reasonably fertile yet well drained, Skimmia flourishes in full or partial shade. Trim to shape after flowering and mulch occasionally. Can be planted in numbers to provide low evergreen ground cover.
