Daphne Odora Aureo-marginata Winter Daphne

Daphne Odora Aureo-marginata Winter Daphne is a compact, rounded, evergreen shrub prized for its brilliant variegated foliage. It blooms in early to mid-spring with fragrant clusters of purplish-pink flowers. In late summer, the blossoms that flutter above the foliage may give way to tiny red fruits. The evergreen foliage is made up of leathery, dark green leaves with striking, creamy gold margins. This cold hardy and highly ornamental flowering shrub is ideal for adding to a doorway, path, or near your patio or deck. Aureo-marginata Winter Daphne thrives in a sheltered location with light, open, or dappled shade and fertile, moisture-retentive, well-drained soils.
