Description: Daphne odora x bholua 'Perfume Princess' White is a highly fragrant, evergreen shrub celebrated for its stunning, long-lasting white flowers and extended flowering season. Blooming from mid-winter through to late spring, this variety produces large clusters of pure white, star-shaped flowers along the stems, filling the garden with a sweet, citrus-like fragrance. The lush, deep green foliage forms a neat, dense habit, making it an excellent choice for garden borders, feature planting, or pots near pathways where its scent can be fully appreciated. This hardy hybrid thrives in part shade to full sun, preferring well-drained, slightly acidic soil. Once established, it is relatively low-maintenance and moderately drought-tolerant, making it ideal for Melbourne gardens.
