"A Daphne that continues to surprise"
Whilst known for its quick growth, large flower and perfume - due to its hybridising cross with d.bholua (it is an odora x bholua hybrid) - Daphne Perfume Princess also lends itself to being grown as a stem plant, as the bholua variety is a very upright growing form of daphne.
Trained from Tissue Culture (without grafting)
Daphne Perfume Princess grown from Tissue Culture can readily grow straight without trimming. The grower simply grows them up a stake until they reach the desired height, removing the bottom leaves as it grows, and then cuts out the leading growth when it gets to the desired height.
Fitzgerald Nurseries in Ireland are currently producing advanced liners to start production of this plant as 'standards' for growers.
Perfume
The rich perfume with soft citrus undertones means that these stem or small tree daphnes are perfect to be grown in pots that can readily be placed on a porch, or wherever one wishes to be enticed with its exquisite perfume.
A most flexible Daphne
In conclusion, Daphne Perfume Princess is already one of the most flexible of all daphnes, has more blooms, flowers up to 8 weeks earlier than d.Odora and continues longer that all other daphnes.
