Just watching last weeks GW - heard mention of an evergreen plant that can be used as a low hedge (instead of buxus) and it has a good scent.  I heard him say salvacoco - any clues as to what this is and the proper spelling.  Exhausted google looking for it....

    Sarcococca - 2 or 3 forms available so look them up and get the best for you.

    Whatever happened to subtitles when they named a particular plant?
