Chimonanthus praecox is best utilised as a winter shrub, where its strongly scented pendant flowers can lift the whole garden. Unusual, gourd-shaped fruits about 4cm long can appear after flowering. It also has an attractive, often multi-stemmed growth habit and handsome winter bark. Grows well in most soils. Good trained as a wall shrub. May be cut back after flowering.
