Pandy’s Garden Center Daphne – Carol Mackie

Small, fragrant, pale pink blossoms cloak this small shrub in spring. The small leaves have a yellow margin that matures to creamy white. Popular and very easy to grow in marginally fertile soils. Ideal for beds, borders and foundation plantings. Semi-evergreen.

Provide enriched, neutral to slightly acidic, moist, well-drained soil. Mulch to keep roots cool. Water deeply, regularly during the first growing season to establish an extensive root system. Feed with a general purpose fertilizer before new growth begins in spring. For a formal appearance, prune after flowering.
