{"product_id":"sweet-box","title":"Sweet Box","description":"\u003cp\u003eSweet Box is a shade-loving evergreen shrub valued for glossy foliage and tiny winter flowers with a surprisingly strong vanilla-like fragrance. Red berries mature to black after flowering and can remain among the foliage for months. The arching, gradually rounded habit fits woodland gardens, shaded foundations, low hedges, and entry beds where its winter scent can be enjoyed. Plant it in rich, moist, well-drained soil and protect the leaves from intense afternoon sun.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003ePlant details\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBotanical name:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cem\u003eSarcococca confusa\u003c\/em\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLight:\u003c\/strong\u003e Part shade to full shade\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUSDA zones:\u003c\/strong\u003e 6–9\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMature height:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3–5 ft\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMature width:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3–5 ft\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFoliage:\u003c\/strong\u003e Evergreen; glossy, leathery dark green foliage\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlower or feature:\u003c\/strong\u003e Tiny creamy-white flowers followed by red berries that mature black\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBloom season:\u003c\/strong\u003e Winter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWater:\u003c\/strong\u003e Average to regular; prefers moist, rich, well-drained soil\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrowth habit:\u003c\/strong\u003e Bushy, mounding and arching; becomes densely rounded with age\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLandscape uses:\u003c\/strong\u003e Shade garden, woodland garden, shaded foundation, low hedge, entry planting, fragrance garden\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDeer tolerance:\u003c\/strong\u003e Generally deer resistant; not deer-proof\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSouth Carolina garden note:\u003c\/strong\u003e Well suited to shaded Zone 8b sites.
