Daphne bholua ‘Mary Rose’

Description

Daphne bholua ‘Mary Rose’

Daphne bholua ‘Mary Rose’ is a highly fragrant, winter-flowering shrub that brings colour and perfume to the garden during the colder months. This semi-evergreen variety forms an upright, bushy habit and produces clusters of richly scented, pale to deep pink flowers from mid-winter to early spring. The blooms are followed by glossy black berries, adding further seasonal interest. ‘Mary Rose’ thrives in a sheltered, partially shaded position with well-drained, humus-rich soil. Reaching up to 2 metres in height, it makes a stunning focal point in borders or near paths where its exquisite scent can be fully appreciated on crisp winter days.
