Why have my Skimmia bushes stopped producing berries?

Our Advice:

Skimmia are male or female plants. Only the females have berries, but need a nearby male to provide pollen. Male forms include Chelsea Physic, Kew Green, Fragrans and Rubella. Usually one male plant is sufficient to pollinate up to 6 females
