'Fragrant Mountain' Sweet Box with its small white blossoms offers the gift of fragrance in late-late winter and early spring. A low broadleaf evergreen shrub, it grows 1+2' tall and spreads by stolons to a width of 2' or more. 'Fragrant Mountain' is the hardiest form of Sweet Box', but it should be sited in a protected spot in the colder parts of zones 6 and 7. We plan to us it in containers with hellebores and pansies for an early spring display.
