Daphne calcicola

Daphne calcicola

A legendary yellow flowered plant from China see plate 142 in the AGS Encyclopedia, our clone is upright and may actually be Daphne aurantica; however the names work out it is a legendary Daphne native to Yunan and on the tender side here, plan on it as an alpine house plant in the north. I would say more but quantities are limited and far too many lust after it already.

Daphne caucasica variegated transatlantica?

Daphne caucasica variegated transatlantica?

This is similar to Summer Ice and Beulah Cross and we are a bit uncertain as to wheather it is a caucasica or a x transatlantica. Whatever the taxonomy it is a good variegated plant that tends to rebloom.

Daphne circassica #1 best

Daphne circassica #1 best

Endemic to the western Caucasus in the region of Mt Fist and Mt. Osten at altitudes from 1800 to 3200m, this cool little Daphne is still very rare in cultivation; it was first introduced by Halda in 1998. Circassica is closely related to sericea and collina and has been fully hardy here. The compact clone we offer is the best of the seedling forms we have seen and will probably eventually be named; I am toying with ‘Fist of God’ after the mountain on Niven’s Ringworld.

Daphne jasminea 'Delphi Form'

Daphne jasminea 'Delphi Form'

Native to Greece and Libya on limestone cliffs from sea level to 1000m the AGS Encyclopedia call it unreliably hardy and recommends alpine house treatment in deep containers. Fortunately we never read that and stuck plants outside, they winter fine in the open garden, but can be displayed to best advantage in a trough. Foliage is fine with a glaucous blue cast, terminating in heads of long purple tubes, which open to starry white flowers. This is a true gem that Farrer lusted after and ranked with petraea.

Synomous with D. buxifolia oleoides ranges widely from S.E Spain through Asia Minor to Afghanistan and the Himalayas, it can reach over two feet in the wild but is generally half that in cultivation, flowers are creamy white and fragrant followed by red fruits.

Daphne sericea Compact Form

Daphne sericea Compact Form

Closely related to collina, (Halda lumped collina into sericea but I doubt if anyone will take it seriously I agree with robin that the two are distinct and the Turkish forms are quite different from the Cretan ones) the heads of sweetly scented lilac flowers, are produced in spring and it generally reblooms later in the summer, in the garden it will make neat rounded mounds 2-3’ in height.

Daphne x Burkwoodii 'G.K. Argules'

Daphne x Burkwoodii 'G.K. Argules'

Introduced by a Devon nursery, its origins seem obscure; it is rather broad leaved for a Burkwoodii with deep green gold edged leaves and pink flowers with a deeper pink perianth tube.

Daphne x burkwoodii 'Gold Dust'

Daphne x burkwoodii 'Gold Dust'

A chance mutation of ‘Silveredge’ that showed up in Punnett’s garden the leaf is internally misted with gold flecking, not all that impressive when viewed up close but form a distance it really stands out ‘Carol Mackie’ and ‘Silveredge’ pale in its presence. Habit is compact growing at about 2/3 the rate of ‘Silveredge’ it almost looks sheared. As with all variegated plants reversions are possible however, it has been incredibly stable to date, by far the best burkwoodii we grow.

Daphne x burkwoodii ‘Silveredge’

Daphne x burkwoodii ‘Silveredge’

If not the best known (Punnett scrounged this from somewhere in Canada although it apparently originated with Grootendorst in Holland in the 1950’s) certainly the best performing of the variegated Burkwoodii clones, in fact its no contest. This is much more upright and taller in the garden, does not flop over and crack under snow load, cuttings root easier and it re-blooms even better than Carol Mackie with less of the tendency to die without warning that Carol Mackie is so famous for. We grow them side-by-side in the garden and the verdict is overwhelming.
