Overview

Evergreen, medium-sized shrub. Highly fragrant with dark purplish-pink and pale pink flowers in late winter, followed by black berries. It makes a tall slender plant that can be lightly pruned to shape in late spring and staked as it matures. Very similar to and a good substitute for Daphne bholua ‘Jacqueline Postill’.

    I rarely write reviews but I must recommend this excellent nursery. It is the best nursery I have used for online ordering. Rang them first with some questions and they were most helpful. Then did my order of heathers and they were sent and arrived promptly in great condition and are very healthy looking plants.
