Sarcococca hookeriana var. digyna 'Purple Stem' is a handsome evergreen shrub with a suckering, spreading habit. Over time it will form a dense thicket of stems which are deep purple when young, gradually fading with maturity. The glossy green foliage forms an ideal backdrop for the spidery pink-tinged flowers which appear in late winter, releasing an irresistible perfume on the chilled winter air. The blooms are later replaced by glossy, blue-black berries. Perfect for creating an informal screen or adding evergreen structure to mixed borders. Height: 1.5m (59). Spread: 2m (78).Plant height and spread is seasonal therefore we list by pot size rather than a defined plant size. The height and spread of the plant delivered will vary depending on the season, meaning arrival images are an indication only.
