A very choice dwarf evergreen shrub with clusters of extremely scented reddish purple flowers during late winter and early spring. These are followed by attractive variegated green leaves, edged yellow. A lovely plant that resents root disturbance. CAUTION toxic if eaten/irritant. Once you have one you will never want to be without. Stunning.
