The grex is Daphne petraea x Daphne cneorum, plants occur naturally in the wild in the region around Lake Garda. The original plant being discovered in the wild by Henderson in 1930, this clone is in all likelihood the one Chris Brickel collected in 1981 ______________ One of my absolutely favorite daphnes. x hendersonii boasts incredibly beautiful dark, glossy, evergreen foliage on compact plants that stay well under a foot tall, often less than 6 inches. It loads itself down with pink flowers in the spring, and then repeats the show usually two more times during the course of the summer. Fragrance is mild but very pleasant. Absolutely lovely every day of the year. Zone 5, at least.

Daphne xhendersonii 'Aymon Correvon' Most hendersoniis not fragrant enough? This notably very free flowering and fragrant selection is the one for you.

A pure white form of this compact cross the reverse of Blackthorn Rose from Robin White who named it to honor his mother. it is truly spectacular but not as easy as some of the hendersonii types.
