Very interesting shrub with a long flowering and fruits that attract the birds until the winter.
Because of its perennial foliage it is very interesting as a singular small tree in the garden and for hedges.
Evergreen to semi-perennial in very cold areas, it reaches 4-5m. in height. Very beautiful white flowers and spectacular red fruits.
Depending on the geographical areas and altitude sowing can take place from February to April. Stratify in cold the seeds for 90 days before the sowing.
