| − | Describe the plant here...
| + | '''Sarcococca cofusa''' is a very adaptable and reliable [[shrub]] that is easily grown in many situations, including dense shade with very dry soil. It will however grow in full sun, even though the [[foliage]] appears to "bleach" a little. The shrub is mid winter [[flowering]] with a delightful sweet scent. |
