Description
An attractive evergreen or semi-evergreen shrub or small tree, valued for its elegant habit, glossy dark green foliage and abundant summer flowering. In late summer, it produces masses of large, white, saucer-shaped flowers with prominent golden stamens, creating a spectacular display and attracting bees and other pollinating insects.
An excellent choice for woodland-style planting, mixed borders and sheltered gardens, it prefers fertile, well-drained, slightly acidic soil and a sunny to partially shaded position. Its evergreen foliage provides year-round structure, while the fragrant flowers bring a welcome late-season display. A handsome specimen for adding height and a touch of elegance to the garden.
