Read detailed description :

Forms a small compact bush, very rustic, keeping its thick and shiny leaves all year round. Its young shoots are copper then dark green, tinted with purple-brown in autumn under the sun. In March-April it blooms with an abundant amount of perfumed yellow flowers, united in clusters on panicles of about 10cm. From August to October, follow little black berries covered wth a blue wax. Tolerates the roots from other trees, cold weather and pollution. Easy to cultivate, growing in any soil.
