Daphne bholua Jacqueline Postill
Evergreen fragrant, winter flowering
D. bholua 'Jacqueline Postill' is an evergreen shrub that flowers from January to April.
The highly fragrant, pretty, star-shaped blooms are pink on the outside and white within, and they blanket the leaf-clad stems through the harshest winter months.
This cultivar has showy purplish-pink tubular blossom, very scented, and it is hardier than most, although it likes a sheltered spot with well-drained soil.
Its native region stretches from East Asia to the Himalayas, in clearings in oak and rhododendron forests and shrubberies to 3100 metres. It prefers woodland, dappled shade and shady edges.
Grows to 2m (6ft) high and 1m wide
Daphne bholua prefers a cool lime-free well-drained sandy loam and a sunny position. It succeeds in neutral soils and tolerates partial shade.
Plants also succeed in quite deep shade.
