Chimonanthus

Chimonanthus

Is there anything as sweet in winter as Wintersweet?

Chimonanthus have small yellow flowers with a touch of maroon on their interior petals. The flowers have a distinctive sweet scent in the winter - when spring seems so far away.

They lend themselves well to almost any planting scheme and like a well-drained soil in a sunny position where they can reach 3m x 3m.

A real must have plant for winter interest.
