Daphne 'Perfume Princess White'

• Daphnes are best planted near paths and doorways or at the front of borders where their delicious fragrance can be enjoyed.

• Plants will thrive in sun or part-shade with well-drained soil. They don't like dry roots, so water regularly and deeply.
• Daphne will establish best if planted when the soil is warm between March and October.
• Dig a hole twice the width of the rootball. Sprinkle in a handful of blood, fish and bone and work into the ground.
• If your soil is heavy add plenty of well rotted compost to the area and dig it in well. Horticultural sand/grit added to the mix is also beneficial, especially if you have heavy clay.
• Place the plant into the hole, back-filling so that it is at the same depth as was in the pot. Fill around the root ball and firm the soil down gently but firmly. Water well.
• Where necessary after flowering, lightly trim to remove misplaced branches and maintain a compact habit, otherwise a quick clear-up of fallen leaves will suffice.
• Daphne are known to have a delicate root structure, so take extreme care when removing this from its nursery pot, as the top plant can sometimes detach from the roots.
