Aucuba Forest Green is a tough, rounded evergreen shrub originally from East Asia, particularly Japan and China. It is valued for its lush, glossy green foliage and ability to thrive in shaded or dry garden areas.

In summer it produces small white flowers, followed by bright red berries that bring added interest through the cooler months. Once established, it tolerates dry soils and is hardy in a range of conditions. Ideal for borders, underplanting or as a low-maintenance feature in shade.
