About this seed

Why gardeners choose this variety

Paperbush links the winter garden with the craft of papermaking. Fibres from the bark of Edgeworthia chrysantha have been used in Japan to make fine paper, including paper for calligraphy. Its common name preserves that practical history, while its scented flower clusters explain why the shrub also earned a place in ornamental gardens.

The flowers appear on bare branches, making the outline of the plant part of the display. A position beside a winter path or near a window lets the developing buds and opening clusters be appreciated when much of the garden is quiet. Grow it as a flowering shrub with a cultural story, rather than expecting a young seedling to supply usable paper fibre.
