Skimmia japonica 'White Dwarf'
Skimmia japonica 'White Dwarf' is a compact male evergreen shrub with a neat, rounded habit and reliable seasonal interest. In winter, it forms clusters of lime-green buds which open in spring to reveal fragrant creamy-white flowers, highly attractive to pollinators. Its evergreen foliage maintains structure and colour all year, making it a superb choice for small gardens and shaded planting areas.
As a male variety, it does not produce berries, but it plays a valuable role as a pollinator for female Skimmia cultivars. Its modest size and tidy growth make it ideal for containers, shaded patios, or small borders where space is limited. Easy to grow and low maintenance, ‘White Dwarf’ is a reliable option for gardeners seeking seasonal fragrance and year-round greenery.
