Evergreen Shrubs and Vines 
DAPHNE (Garland Flower) 
Daphne Cneorum is a dwarf evergreen shrub. It has become very popular within the last few 
years, due to the beauty and pleasing fragrance of its blossoms. 
The soft pink flowers appear profusely during April and May. Later, in the fall, it will blossom 
again. The fall flowers are not affected by frost and frequently can be picked in early December. 
The blue-green foliage is handsome at all seasons of the year. 
It is a most adaptable hardy plant, ideal for the herbaceous border, edging the shrubbery border 
or in the rock garden. The plant grows to a height of one foot, with spreading branches which cover 
over a space of two to three feet.
