This is a lovely Daphne (aren't they all!) which makes a neat rounded compact globe in a short time. Leaves are deepest green and semi-glossy being evergreen and held on very rigid stems. The stem tips hold next years growth buds and these are rich red adding to the interest. Flowers are deep pink in bud opening paler pink with the usual strong sweet scent associated with Daphnes.
