Skimmia japonica 'Finchy' is an upright, bushy, evergreen shrub with elliptic, glossy, dark green leaves and clusters of small, fragrant, star-shaped, creamy-white flowers blooming in spring from small, green flower buds. It’s a male variety that doesn’t bear fruit. Female skimmias require a male plant nearby to produce berries. Skimmia japonica 'Finchy' grows best in moderately fertile, chalky or loamy, slightly acidic, moist, well-drained soils. It thrives in partial shade to full shade. In full sun, its leaves may yellow and scorch. It is resistant to frost, but needs to be sheltered from harsh winter winds. Tolerant of urban pollution. Low maintenance plant, doesn’t require pruning. Skimmia 'Finchy', with its lovely white flowers and lush foliage, is a perfect shrub for shady corners of informal, cottage, wildlife or urban gardens. Excellent for shrub borders, foundation plantings, and banks and slopes. Great for informal hedges and screens. Suitable for growing in containers.
