chance hybrid from R. White / about 0,3 m high and ca. 0,5 m across / evergreen / fragrance / prefers a sunny place / the selection Daphne x whiteorum ‘Warnford’ seems to be the hardiest, but a protection against wetness during winter is useful /

Daphne x whiteorum ‘Kilmeston’ and ‘Warnford’ have the parentage mentioned above
