Nursery contributed plant descriptions

A vigorous 'tangled' shrub with glossy foliage which follows white flowers and, later, has yellow-green aromatic fruit. Easy in full sun or part shade. We acquired this form when we bought out the stock from a rare plant nursery in 2000 and have never seen it elsewhere but the former owner collected plants/seeds all over the world and had lots of weird, rare and very cool stuff! This was one of them.
