Discover the timeless elegance and versatile appeal of Cleyera japonica, also known as Japanese Cleyera or Sakaki–a stunning broadleaf evergreen shrub or small tree originating from Japan, Korea, and China. Revered in the Shinto religion, its exquisite evergreen foliage steals the show while providing year-round beauty in your garden. This majestic plant can soar to heights of 10-15 feet with a spread of 8-10 feet, offering a lush green backdrop for any landscape. Its glossy, leathery leaves, transitioning from coppery bronze to vibrant green, captivate the eye, while the fragrant white flowers and shiny black berries present subtle yet charming seasonal highlights.

Thriving in USDA hardiness zones 6-9, Japanese Cleyera is remarkably adaptable, flourishing in both sun and partial shade. It relishes high organic matter, well-draining soils, and proves drought-tolerant once established. Ideal for foundation plantings, hedges, or as a privacy screen, this low-maintenance shrub creates a serene and sophisticated ambiance. Its rapid growth and flexible form allow for easy pruning, ensuring it perfectly complements your garden aesthetic, whether standing alone as a focal point or serving as a tasteful hedge. Delight in the enduring beauty of Cleyera japonica, transforming your outdoor spaces into a haven of tranquility and natural splendor.
