Sarcococca hookeriana var. humilis
Native Range: Asia
The humilis variety of sweet box is shorter in stature than the other varieties of this evergreen shrub. Its fragrant white flowers are often hidden under the foliage, but its dark, almost black, red berries provide visual interest in the winter when other parts of the garden are not in bloom.
