Daphne odora is a highly sought-after beauty which is sure to brighten up your garden in both spring and winter, with compact, evergreen, leathery dark green foliage. In the late winter and spring, clusters of pale pink flowers open from dark buds, emitting a sweet scent which tempts you outside on even the coldest spring days. Soon after, red, spherical berries are produced which attract birds into your garden. Voted as one of the most fragrant shrubs in the UK, Daphnes are a must-have plant for every garden. Excellent cut for flower arrangements, so you can enjoy the beauty and the scent indoors. It is a low maintenance plant, requiring very little attention. It prefers to be grown in any well-drained soil in full sun or partial shade. Growing to a height and spread of approximately 1.5m, it is a hardy (H4) perennial for you to enjoy for years to come, flourishing outside in UK winters.
