The Daphne 'Perfume Princess' is a true garden royalty, celebrated as the earliest and longest-flowering Daphne ever bred. This award-winning evergreen combines a lush, architectural presence with an intoxicating fragrance that can drift across an entire yard.
The unparalleled fragrance and prolific blooming of this shrub are its most noticeable features. In late winter to early spring, masses of large, pale pink flowers—which age to a pure white—emerge from deep pink buds along the entire length of the stems. This vigorous evergreen features glossy, deep green pointed foliage and typically grows up to 4’ tall with a 3’ spread. It performs best in full sun to partial shade, though it appreciates protection from the intense afternoon sun in warmer climates. Hardy in zones 7-9.
We recommend using EB Stone Organic Sure Start when planting to promote strong root growth and help ensure the plants' health.
