Daphne x burkwoodii 'Silveredge' smaller

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.
