There is no more fragrant spring landscape shrub that Daphne and 'Eternal Fragrance' is one of the best of these fragrant wonders with countless tight groups of outlandishly fragrant, small pink flowers starting in early May. The intial bloom comes from last years growth and takes place as new foliage is just starting to emerge. As the flowers mature and pass, deep green foliage fully matures creating a dense, tight rounded presence in the landscape. As spring turns to summer we begin to see how 'Eternal Fragrance' came by its name as a succession of pink blooms begins anew and continues throughout the summer while filling the garden with their amazing scent. Use this selection as a specimen or grouped to create the most fragrant little hedge you've ever seen in a fully sunny, well drained location.
