Daphne ‘Perfume Princess White’

£36.50

Daphne ‘Perfume Princess White’ An evergreen, compact, dense, bushy upright shrub with pointed glossy green leaves.   Lovely scented white flowers are borne along the stem as well as each branch tip, blooming from mid-winter to spring, and are attractive to bees and other pollinating insects.   Daphnes prefer to be planted in the ground rather than containers as they enjoy a deeper, cooler root run.  Pruning should be kept to a minimum as the plant is susceptible to die-back, but may be lightly trimmed after flowering to remove misplaced branches to maintain a compact habit. Plant in moist, well drained fertile acid, alkaline or neutral soil in full sun or semi-shade, and shelter from cold, drying winds.   Hardiness rating H5. At certain times of the year the trees and plants that you buy from us may not look like the images shown on our website, this may be due to deciduous leaves falling, or the plant finishing flowering. All photographs on our website are of our own grown stock, or in the case of Italian specimens or bare root hedging, these are photographs of the plants actually in stock.
