One of the class acts of the winter blooming shrub world.  This lemon yellow-flowered selection of the Paper Bush is an affirmation of spring with its late winter flowers on bare stems.  The common name comes from the high quality paper once made from its bark.  Sun to part sun for best bloom.

We have just a handful of young plants of this uncommon cultivar from Japan  Nioi means "scent" in Japanese and while we do appreciate that, it is the larger than usual heads of yellow flowers that we appreciate and is the largest of the clones we grow.
