Skimmia japonica 'Finchy' (M)
Skimmia japonica 'Finchy' is a compact, evergreen shrub with a neat, rounded habit and glossy green foliage. In spring, this male variety produces dense clusters of fragrant white flowers, preceded by green buds that add winter interest. Though it does not form berries, it plays an essential role as a pollinator for female Skimmia cultivars, ensuring they produce their characteristic red fruits.
Hardy and easy to grow, ‘Finchy’ thrives in partial to full shade and prefers neutral to acidic soil. Its compact habit makes it a perfect choice for containers, mixed borders, or shaded spots where evergreen structure and spring fragrance are valued.
