Skimmia japonica temptation 1.5ltr

Skimmia japonica temptation 1.5ltr

Skimmia japonica ‘Temptation’ is an exceptional evergreen shrub, valued for its compact size and year-round appeal. This cultivar is known for its glossy, dark green leaves and striking clusters of fragrant, creamy white flowers that bloom in late winter to early spring. Following the flowering period, ‘Temptation’ develops attractive red berries that persist through autumn, adding a vibrant splash of color to your garden.

For optimal growth, plant Skimmia japonica ‘Temptation’ in a location that receives partial to full shade and has well-drained, acidic soil. It thrives in shaded areas where it is protected from the harsh afternoon sun, which helps maintain the vibrancy of its foliage and ensures a healthy berry set. This shrub is especially well-suited to cooler climates and can enhance shaded or woodland gardens.

‘Temptation’ typically blooms in late winter to early spring, with the berries developing and maturing through summer and autumn. To support vigorous growth and ensure a prolific berry set, feed the plant with a balanced, acid-loving fertilizer designed for rhododendrons and azaleas in early spring, just as new growth begins.

Pruning should be done after flowering. Remove any dead or damaged foliage and spent flower heads to maintain the shrub’s shape and encourage fresh, healthy growth. Regular light pruning helps keep the plant compact and attractive throughout the year.

Skimmia japonica ‘Temptation’ provides a beautiful, low-maintenance addition to any garden, with its fragrant blooms and vibrant berries offering lasting visual interest.
