An acre of garden in Surrey, UK. Several venerable old trees and flower beds for colour. I love scented plants!

This mahonia self seeds in lots of odd places in the garden! They can be moved easily and grow really well. It is happy to be cut into shape and has the bonus of these fragrant flowers in winter.

Hi, Do you think most mahonias have this habit as I haven't noticed this with mine but only about 2 years planted- good to know and 👀 out for

Hi @titchyfra ! Locally these can be found growing in lots of people's holly bushes, rocky spots, and other unexpected places! They are easy to pull out if you don't want them, but seem happy in difficult spots!

This one is on my wish list such a welcome sight in the winter 😍

Maybe they'll be reduced soon in the GC @nessas and then go for it, I've not been disappointed and it's flowers are cheery sight in December! I planted in front garden so I can enjoy during winter 😀
