Daphne
Evergreen, semi-evergreen or deciduous shrubs, with usually fragrant, tubular flowers, each with 4 spreading lobes. Some species have decorative foliage or fruits (seeds are poisonous). Dwarf species and cultivars are good for rock gardens.
Fully to frost hardy. Most need full sun (although D. alpina, D. arbuscula and D. blagayana may be grown in semi-shade and D. laureola tolerates deep shade.) and fertile, well-drained, but not over-dry soil. Resents being transplanted.
