This hybrid of Daphne cneorum and Daphne tangutica  shall have the name Daphne x ‘Vogelsangbachtal’ , it is a forested beautiful valley in my hometown Heiligenhaus,    Vogel-sang-Bach-Tal  – transl.  Bird-sang-creek-valley

Daphne x ‘In Paradise’ is another hybrid of mine, that is named after the little street ‘Im Paradies’ that goes through the valley Vogelsangbachtal.
