Back to catalogue

May daphne reaches 1 m in height and width. Dark green leaves that persist for a long time. Countless globular inflorescences, first pink then whitish, appear from May to June. An undemanding plant. Although May daphne is shade-loving, it tolerates sunny spots if the soil remains sufficiently cool. Hardiness zone 5b.
