Description
The Daphne 'Perfume Princess White' is characterized by large and numerous clusters of intensely fragrant white flowers. Place this fragrant daphne near a high-traffic area to enjoy its scent from the end of winter. This white version of the 'Perfume Princess' variety, known to be the earliest and most floriferous of all hybrid daphnes, possesses all its qualities. Hardy, this evergreen shrub can be planted alone, in a border, or in a container. Its cultivation is delicate, but your efforts will be greatly rewarded by its generous flowering with intoxicating fragrance with citrus notes.
From the Thymelaeaceae family, the 'Perfume Princess White' Daphne is a chance mutation with white flowers of the variety 'Perfume Princess'. This recent New Zealand creation is the result of cross-breeding between the D. odora, a Chinese evergreen shrub with low hardiness, and the D. bholua, a tall upright shrub native to the eastern Himalayas, also highly fragrant and much hardier. This white version forms a bushy, upright, and dense shrub, reaching 1.2 m in height and 1 m in width. Its growth is fairly slow. The leaves are leathery and dark green. They measure between 6 and 10 cm in length and 1 to 2.5 cm in width. Evergreen in mild and temperate climates, they can be semi-evergreen in cold climates. It is a very floriferous variety that adorns itself, from January to early spring, with star-shaped flowers of pure white, highly fragrant. The flowers are arranged in umbels along the branches and at each end. There may sometimes be a second flowering in late summer.
The 'Perfume Princess White' Fragrant Daphne will find its place in any garden as long as the soil remains moist in summer and is not too chalky. It can be planted in a border, as a standalone specimen, or in a large pot on a terrace. To easily enjoy its complex and powerful fragrance, place it near a window, path, or entrance. Create a border that blooms almost all year round by combining this white-flowered daphne with an Autumn-flowering Camellia 'Naruti Gaita', a Chinese Azalea 'Soir de Paris' with pink spring flowers, and a Hydrangea 'Baron Pourpre' that will take over until the end of summer. The flowering branches of the fragrant daphne combined with those of the Japanese Quince 'Cameo' with salmon-coloured flowers will allow you to create beautiful bouquets.
Note: Daphnes are sometimes finicky plants, and their cultivation can be delicate if the conditions are not suitable. They are best reserved for gardeners with experience.

Planting and care
The Daphne 'Perfume Princess White' should be planted in a rich, moist, and well-drained soil, neutral to slightly acidic. It dislikes chalky, dry, or overly wet soils. It prefers a sunny to partially shaded exposure, sheltered from cold and drying winds. In the south of France, place it in the morning sun; avoid full sun. It is hardy down to -15°C. Apply a thick layer of organic mulch to protect the base and maintain soil moisture. Avoid disturbing the roots of your Daphne. After flowering, apply organic fertiliser. Like Daphne odora, it can be affected by black spot; treat it with a fungicidal in spring. Pruning is unnecessary. Only remove dead or interfering branches.

Hardiness is the lowest winter temperature a plant can endure without suffering serious damage or even dying. However, hardiness is affected by location (a sheltered area, such as a patio), protection (winter cover) and soil type (hardiness is improved by well-drained soil).
The flowering period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions located in USDA zone 8 (France, the United Kingdom, Ireland, the Netherlands, etc.)
It will vary according to where you live:- In zones 9 to 10 (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), flowering will occur about 2 to 4 weeks earlier.
- In zones 6 to 7 (Germany, Poland, Slovenia, and lower mountainous regions), flowering will be delayed by 2 to 3 weeks.
- In zone 5 (Central Europe, Scandinavia), blooming will be delayed by 3 to 5 weeks.
In temperate climates, pruning of spring-flowering shrubs (forsythia, spireas, etc.) should be done just after flowering.
Pruning of summer-flowering shrubs (Indian Lilac, Perovskia, etc.) can be done in winter or spring.
In cold regions as well as with frost-sensitive plants, avoid pruning too early when severe frosts may still occur.
The planting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions located in USDA zone 8 (France, United Kingdom, Ireland, Netherlands).
It will vary according to where you live:
- In Mediterranean zones (Marseille, Madrid, Milan, etc.), autumn and winter are the best planting periods.
- In continental zones (Strasbourg, Munich, Vienna, etc.), delay planting by 2 to 3 weeks in spring and bring it forward by 2 to 4 weeks in autumn.
- In mountainous regions (the Alps, Pyrenees, Carpathians, etc.), it is best to plant in late spring (May-June) or late summer (August-September).
The harvesting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions in USDA zone 8 (France, England, Ireland, the Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...) fruit and vegetable harvests are likely to be delayed by 3-4 weeks.
In warmer areas (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), harvesting will probably take place earlier, depending on weather conditions.
The sowing periods indicated on our website apply to countries and regions within USDA Zone 8 (France, UK, Ireland, Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...), delay any outdoor sowing by 3-4 weeks, or sow under glass.
In warmer climes (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), bring outdoor sowing forward by a few weeks.
