(aka: Sarcococca humilis 'Pmoore03') Sarcococca 'Winter Gem' is a new selection of Sarcococca hookeriana var. humilis developed via an intentional cross by Peter Moore of Hilliers Nursery in the UK. The result is a much more compact evergreen plant to 30" tall x 2' wide. The winter flowering begins with rosy red bud, first showing in early January, followed by the tiny fragrant white flowers, beginning in mid February.
