Hello, Yes, this tends to do very well in pots provided they are kept well fed and watered.

Hello, If planted at 30-45cm intervals, this would make a lovely, low informal hedge, however daphnes are sometimes fussy, so it is important to make sure you have the right conditions for it. They are happiest in a reasonably sunny spot, which gets protection from the sun during the hottest part of the day. The soil should be good relatively freely draining, but with lots of composted organic matter dug through. These plants are great because they tend to hold onto some of their leaves in winter, but once established they will also flower for months on end.They are however slow-growing, so you will need to be patient.

Hello there This is a lovely daphne but they are not always successful grown in pots. Daphnes are deep rooted so if you are going to grow in a pot then I would choose a deep pot, and use a John Innes soil no3 compost, with grit or course sand to aid drainage, and only one plant per container. Hope this helps.

Hello there Spring is the best time to plant daphnes and this one is fully hardy, so it can be planted outside now. Hope this helps.

Hello there Yes this Daphne should be fine, they like full or partial sun ans can be planted in an east facing aspect. I have attached links below to some other shrubs that you could use, however the Azaleas do like an acid soil. Rhododendron 'Gumpo White' http://www.crocus.co.uk/plants/_/rhododendron-gumpo-white/classid.2108/ Weigela florida Monet http://www.crocus.co.uk/plants/_/weigela-florida-monet--verweig-pbr/classid.2000011761/ Skimmia japonica 'Nymans' http://www.crocus.co.uk/plants/_/skimmia-japonica-nymans/classid.4383/ Rhododendron 'Mother's Day' http://www.crocus.co.uk/plants/_/rhododendron-mothers-day-kurume/classid.2124/ Hope this helps

Hello there Yes you can grow this in a container, but daphnes won't like drying out or being in waterlogged soil. These are deep rooted plants you will need to choose a deep container, and I would plant it in a John Innes No 3 compost along with some multipurpose compost, and some coarse sharp sand for drainage. Hope this helps .

Hello, These plants are grown on a specialist nursery as they are notoriously hard to propagate. Because of this, it is difficult to be more specific with regards to their availability, but we do currently have the larger size in stock - please click on the following link to go straight to it. http://www.crocus.co.uk/plants/_/shrubs/classid.2000013038/ I'm sorry not to be more help,

Hello Terry, If you click on the following link it will take you to all our winter flowering climbers - of which the Jasminum is tougher and more like a shrub. http://www.crocus.co.uk/plants/_/climbers/plcid.15/vid.204/ Alternatively, this link will take you to all our winter flowering shrubs. http://www.crocus.co.uk/plants/_/shrubs/plcid.1/vid.204/ I hope this helps.

Hello Keith, There are several lovely plants which spring to mind including Daphne, Hypericum, Rhododendron (the smaller cultivars) and Hebe. I hope this helps. Helen Plant Doctor

All Daphnes prefer humus-rich, well-drained soil that is slightly alkaline to slightly acid. They also like their roots to be kept cool so its a good idea to mulch around the base of the plant with leaf mould.
