Sarcococca (Greek, flesh and berry, alluding to the fleshy fruit). Buxaceae. Ornamental woody plants grown chiefly for the handsome lustrous foliage. Evergreen glabrous shrubs: lvs. petioled, alternate, coriaceous, entire, without stipules: fls. unisexual, apetalous, in short axillary racemes with the pistillate fls. at the base; sepals 4 or 6; disk wanting; staminate fls. with 4-6 stamens opposite the sepals; pistillate fls. with a 2-3-celled ovary with 2-3 short erect or recurved styles: fr. indehiscent, globose to ellipsoid, coriaceous or fleshy, 1-2-seeded.—Five species distributed from Cent. and W. China to the Malay Archipelago. They are handsome evergreen shrubs with ovate to lanceolate entire lustrous leaves, rather insignificant whitish flowers in axillary clusters and red or purple berry-like fruits. S. ruscifolia and S. Hookeriana var. humilis have proved hardy in sheltered positions at the Arnold Arboretum, while S. saligna is tender. They do not seem particular as to the soil and do best in partly shaded situations. Propagation is by seeds or by cuttings which root easily.
