Skimmia Japonica 'Fragrant Cloud' is a variety of Skimmia that forms a dense dome of sweetly scented white flowers in spring.
Skimmias are an acid-loving plant so plant in ericaceous compost to keep them looking green and healthy. Skimmia will happily grow in full sun or partial shade and remember to water during periods of prolonged heat throughout summer and during the first year of establishment after planting. The ideal time to feed the Skimmia in the garden is during the beginning of Spring with an ericaceous feed such as Miracle-Gro Azalea, Camellia and Rhododendron soluble food.
