Notes

'Aureo-marginata' winter daphne (Daphne odora 'Aureo-marginata') is a shrub for specimen planting, containers, winter interest, and foundation beds. It is hardy to USDA zone 7, or down to 0°F (-18°C). This plant likes full or part sun and dry to moist, loamy soil. Fragrant blooms open in winter and spring, and bees and butterflies visit them. It sits low on the menu for deer.

Pairs well with Amsonia, Paperbark maple, and Green and gold.
