    Nursery contributed plant descriptions

    Daphne odora is easily one of the most delectably scented of all plants. Purplish-pink flower buds open to bright-white blossoms very early in spring. This exquisite 3-4' evergreen shrub is attractive all year with dark, glossy leaves margined with creamy-yellow. You must plant this where its amazing perfume can be enjoyed! It is particularly effective near a patio or deck, especially with north or east facing aspects. PSh/M/GDr

    Broadleaf evergreen shrub with a mounding habit. Green foliage has yellow to white margins. Fragrant, pink flowers adorn the foliage from late winter into early spring. Great for walkways or under a window where the sweet fragrance can be enjoyed! Growth Rate medium

    Flowering in late winter with very fragrant pink flowers that open from magenta buds, this is a dense mounding shrub, to 4 x 4', with nicely variegated evergreen foliage. Good for late winter cheer! Sun, good drainage, and summer water. Cold hardy to USDA zone 7.
