Chimonanthus praecox “wintersweet”

Chimonanthus praecox 'wintersweet'

Published: March 2010

This Chinese shrub is usually grown against a sheltered wall but as a woodland plant it is equally at home in a sheltered glade.  Its waxy pale yellow flowers are not produced until the shrub is a few years old but worth waiting for as it has a slightly spicy, sweet scent. This truly divine perfume can be found in the Birkett Long Millennium Walk, and should not be missed.
