Skimmia japonica subsp. reevesiana (M/F)
Skimmia japonica reevesiana (M/F) is a self-fertile, evergreen shrub valued for its compact habit and year-round appeal. In spring, it produces dense panicles of small, creamy-white fragrant flowers, which are followed by clusters of glossy, bright red berries that persist throughout winter. Unlike most Skimmias, this self-fertile variety does not require a pollinating partner, making it particularly easy to grow and reliable for consistent berry displays.
Perfect for shaded borders, containers, or woodland-style gardens, this hardy shrub thrives in full or partial shade and moist, well-drained soil. Its glossy foliage, scented flowers, and long-lasting berries make it a superb choice for adding colour and structure through every season.
