{"product_id":"skimmia-perosa","title":"Skimmia 'Perosa'","description":"\u003cp\u003eSkimmia 'Perosa' is a highly architectural, beautifully compact evergreen shrub celebrated for its outstanding variegated foliage and incredibly long-lasting display of seasonal colour. Throughout the entire year, the dense branches are clothed in striking grey-green leaves featuring distinctive silvery-white margins. As winter approaches, this spectacular male cultivar produces tightly packed panicles of dark red buds that persist through the coldest months, providing brilliant contrast against the light foliage before bursting into highly fragrant, star-shaped white flowers in early spring.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen establishing this neat evergreen, choose a partially or fully shaded location that offers rich, moist, and well-draining soil with a slightly acidic to neutral pH. It is a highly robust, fully hardy outdoor shrub that actually thrives in darker garden borders or shaded woodland settings where many other flowering plants struggle to survive. With a naturally dense, perfectly rounded growth habit, it requires virtually no pruning to maintain its exceptional architectural shape, making it the perfect low-maintenance addition to decorative patio pots or mixed beds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlease Note: Images are for illustrative purposes only and designed to be a representation of the item(s) being sold.
