Do you mean is it male or female?
IIRC you need one of each to make berries.

IIRC stands for, if I remember correctly, IIRC.
I had a skimmia, just one, for years and patiently waited for the berries but they never came. Then I found out about needing 2 plants.

I have a couple, they've grown very little and I struggle keeping the leaves green. They always turn pale yellow.
