    Our original plants came from Marshall Olbrich (Western Hills Nsy). This is the largest daphne in the world. It can grow to 20' in shade. Borderline hardiness here. We had our plant outside until 8 °F. These great container plants start blooming at Thanksgiving and finish in March. Pleasing, sweet daphne fragrance.
