PLANT OF THE WEEK

DRIMYS WINTERI

Drimys is an evergreen shrub or small tree and looks really wonderful in full bloom at the moment. The large clusters of creamy white flowers stand out well against the elegant long leaves. Best grown in welldrained, lime-free soil in sun or partial shade. From the temperate rain forests of Chile and Argentina, it is hardy in the UK but does best in a sheltered position.
