Daphne Odora is VERY Fragrant and blooms in Spring, in fact it is blooming right now and the cold-frame is scented with it's wonderful fragrance!
This is a Evergreen broadleaf moderate growing shrub with a Height of 3-4 ft with a Spread of 4-5 ft.
It must have afternoon shade here in our valley and well drained soil is another must.
They are Hardy to about 5 degrees and according to Oregon State, Sunset and Rutgers they are Deer Resistant.
We have deer here at the Nursery that seem to leave them alone but as always there is no such thing as Deer PROOF! :)
This was an amazing specimen easily 3.5 feet tall and almost 5 feet wide, but unfortunately it was destroyed in the Fire.
Guess we need to get another one planted!!
