Skimmia japonica 'Fragrant Cloud' (M)
Skimmia 'Fragrant Cloud' is a reliable male Skimmia cultivar prized for its compact habit, rich green foliage, and long-lasting winter flower buds. From autumn through winter, it holds dense panicles of creamy-white buds that provide interest even before blooming. These buds open into fragrant white flowers in spring, attracting bees and early pollinators. As a male form, it does not produce berries, but it will help pollinate nearby female Skimmias. Perfect for shade gardens, mixed borders, or as a feature in containers, it offers year-round structure with minimal maintenance.
