Skimmia japonica 'Perosa' frunze variegate (liliac japonez) 2pp

Skimmia japonica 'Perosa' is a variety of Skimmia, an evergreen shrub belonging to the Rue family. This variety is valued for its glossy, dark green leaves with creamy edges, and for its ability to withstand partial or full shade conditions.

Skimmia 'Perosa' produces dense flower clusters made up of small, creamy white or pale pink flowers that appear in spring and have a delicate scent. The fruits, which appear on female plants if a male pollinator is nearby, are bright red berries that persist on the plant throughout winter, adding a beautiful color contrast to the landscape.
It is a compact shrub, reaching about 1-1.5 meters in height and width at maturity, making it suitable for growing in small gardens, as an edging plant, or in containers on terraces and balconies. It prefers well-drained, fertile soils and a slightly acidic to neutral environment. Although it is hardy to low temperatures, protection from strong winds and direct summer sun can help maintain the healthy appearance of the leaves.
It withstands temperatures down to -23 degrees Celsius.
