Sarcococca

I adore this plant. It's potted so I can keep it by the back door. When it blooms its scent is fabulous. It has berries now. #progress #sweet-box #evergreen #scented #fragrant

Wonderful My neighbour has one and I smell it as I walk by

Wondering🤔🤔if it's zone 6 hardy? I love it💞 @columbiariver

Oolala!! It does smell fabby!💘😍

Beautiful plant. Love the berries. Have never had the pleasure of the scent of a Sweet Box. 💙

My little one has berries for the first time this year 😍

One of my favourites too Laura. The smell is divine and it has its berries and its flowers at the same time. As I’m in the UK I’m not sure about your zones Thelma but it’s hardy here down to -15C. Definitely worth trying 😊 @crabby58

Thank you, @awomanonabike

My favourite winter flowering shrub, Laura! Mine’s planted by the front porch and I’ve clipped it into a hedge. The flowers are just beginning to open and the berries have fallen off and produced babies underneath the mother shrub. 😍

Hi Thelma. Yes zone 6 is fine. I'm 5b so you're good. @crabby58

I can see the flowers starting to form now Jacqueline. It's such a pleasure to watch it @awomanonabike

Thank you Sharon, Shelley, Diane and Jane 💓 we all need a lovely scent in our winter garden or our neighbors 😍 @sharonhayden @ShelleySnyder @hkyfvr @pelly

Pretty 🙂

Love plants that are fragrant😃what do the berries and flowers look like? @columbiariver

It's a wonderful bushy plant. It sounds fantastic. I can't say I've seen any in Garden Centres but then I usually look for other things. Salvia's and such like 💚💚

Scented and berries. Wow. Lovely foliage too. Have never seen one before. 💚💚

You have to buy one, Chris! They’re readily available in the shrub section of GCs and at this time of year they’re a must-have plant for the winter garden. @midnightgardener 👍

@jacaranda It's added to my wish list now Barbara. It would be great to pot it too. I could use a bushy healthy plant like this on the patio 😁💚💚♥️

You won’t be disappointed, Chris 👍 @midnightgardener

@jacaranda I believe you wholeheartedly. Thank you for the recommendation 😘💚💚♥️

A new start today from Elaine H at #columbiangardenclub 1.8.20

Another great one for January. Love it! Mine is right by the front door so I can smell it whenever I go in or out 😍

Smells sooooo good Laura!💘😍

This lady is a master gardener and garden designer. She brings fresh cuttings of flowering plants from her home every meeting and talks about them. January has beautiful flowers too! Fascinating. @awomanonabike

Oh such a sweet scent. It's heavenly 💚 @ShelleySnyder

How wonderful to have someone like that near you, and great choices 👌

Sounds wonderful. 👍

I have a small sarcococca hedge by my front porch and the black berries self seed and produce baby plants, Laura, so you’ll have some of your own to give away before too long 🤞 😍

Lovely!

Thanks Janice @lovestogarden

Mine does exactly the same Barbara and so all my friends have at least one! You’ll love it Laura 😍 @jacaranda

This sounds like a very good thing Barbara! I'm looking forward to mine doing as well as yours. I'd love to have a sniff 👃💕 @jacaranda
