Daphne 'Perfume Princess'

Here in the Pacific NW, one of the heralds of spring is the heady scent of winter Daphnes in bloom. Deep pink buds open to white clusters of flowers on loosely formed shrubs that prefer some afternoon shade. 'Perfume Princess' is a newer variety that is distinct from its cousins for its greater tolerance to heat and sun, and its all-green foliage. Proclaimed to be one of the heaviest blooming and most fragrant of Daphnes, 'Perfume Princess' can be a centerpiece in the yard, forming a fairly dense, upright evergreen shrub about three to four feet tall and wide. Blooms emerge in January and will last into early spring, so consider planting this beauty close to walkways, patios, and even garden benches.
