Bought in July 2020, planted in large pot with ericaceous soil. Wanted a Daphne that can tolerate sun. Seems like it was doing well. That year it snowed and the plant did not recover. Was west facing.

I bought these 3 years ago. They were little things and I wondered how this was going to work as I am a novice gardener and our soil isn't great. The first year they didn't flower. Last year one of them flowered and the smell was beautiful and the flowers lasted for months. This year they have really grown and I am expecting them both to flower. They both look very healthy and strong.

Has been in flower since December, now May. Very attractive waxy flowers, the plant itself is beautiful enough however when the flowers open their scent is superb. Not demanding, remove the odd yellowing leaf, feed with seaweed if needed, mulch, if it needs nutrients the plant will tell you, don't over water it. Our garden is very windy, we get -10 C in winter, Daphne has never been affected. Can be grown in a large container if lack room is an issue. Thank you Crocus for selling extraordinary healthy plants.

It is too small yet to plant in the garden. So, it's growing in apogee. No flowers this year but hoping for some next year.

June's Jungle

In July 2016 I purchased 2 Daphne Perfume Princess plants which arrived looking healthy and were almost immediately planted out into good soil. Up until mid autumn they looked healthy and put on the flowering shoots that blossom in February and which have a strong and attractive scent. Unfortunately, in October one of the plants drooped badly overnight and did not recover. Eventually I removed it but could find no evidence of what had caused its failure. I spoke to a professional gardener who told me that he had had a similar experience when two out of five plants failed, so be warned, as this is a quite expensive plant !!

This has been in flower since early January and shows no sign of flagging in late Feb. It's been in the garden for two years and this is the first year of flowering.

A real let down as none of the three plants purchased flowered. A rare failure from Crocus

I bought this as a present for an elderly friend who had always wanted one. She was thrilled and has not reported any problems x
