A compact, slow-growing evergreen skimmia valued for its glossy green foliage and clusters of small white spring flowers. Ideal for shaded borders, woodland-style plantings and containers, it thrives in moist, humus-rich, well-drained soil that is neutral to acid (avoid chalk). Best in partial to full shade, with protection from hot afternoon sun. Ultimately forms a tidy shrub around 11.5m.
