Description:

Daphne odora 'Aureomarginata' is a captivating evergreen shrub that delights the senses with its fragrant flowers and variegated foliage. Known for its sweet and intoxicating fragrance, this variety brings a touch of elegance and charm to any garden or landscape. The glossy green leaves with yellow margins add a beautiful contrast and visual interest throughout the year, making it a sought-after choice for garden enthusiasts.

Key Features:

  • Fragrant flowers: Daphne odora 'Aureomarginata' is renowned for its sweet and lingering fragrance. In late winter to early spring, clusters of pink, star-shaped flowers emerge from the leaf axils, releasing their captivating scent into the air. Plant it near a pathway, entrance, or seating area to fully enjoy its enchanting fragrance.
  • Variegated foliage: One of the distinctive features of 'Aureomarginata' is its variegated foliage. The glossy dark green leaves are edged with a narrow yellow margin, creating a striking contrast and adding visual interest to the garden. The variegation remains attractive throughout the year, even when the plant is not in bloom.
  • Evergreen nature: Daphne odora 'Aureomarginata' is an evergreen shrub, which means it retains its foliage year-round. This characteristic ensures that your garden remains visually appealing even during the colder months when many other plants have shed their leaves. The glossy foliage provides a lush backdrop for other seasonal plants and adds structure and color to the landscape.
  • Compact size: This variety has a compact growth habit, reaching a height of approximately 3 to 4 feet (90 to 120 cm) and spreading up to 4 to 5 feet (120 to 150 cm). Its moderate size makes it suitable for small gardens, containers, or as an accent plant in mixed borders.
  • Low maintenance: Daphne odora 'Aureomarginata' is known for its low maintenance requirements, making it an excellent choice for busy gardeners. It is relatively drought-tolerant once established and requires minimal pruning. However, it benefits from a well-drained soil and protection from harsh winter winds.

Maintenance:

To ensure the health and vitality of Daphne odora 'Aureomarginata', follow these maintenance tips:

  • Light requirements: Plant in a location that receives partial to full sun. While it tolerates some shade, more sun exposure generally promotes better flowering and foliage variegation.
  • Soil conditions: Provide well-draining soil that is rich in organic matter. Amend the soil with compost or aged manure before planting to enhance fertility and drainage.
  • Watering: Water regularly, especially during dry periods, to keep the soil evenly moist but not waterlogged. Avoid overwatering, as it may cause root rot.
  • Mulching: Apply a layer of organic mulch around the base of the shrub to help conserve moisture, regulate soil temperature, and suppress weed growth.
  • Pruning: Prune lightly after flowering to maintain the shrub's shape and remove any dead or damaged branches. Avoid heavy pruning, as it may reduce the blooming potential for the following season.
  • Pest and disease control: Daphne odora 'Aureomarginata' is generally resistant to pests and diseases. However, monitor for common issues like aphids or powdery mildew and take appropriate measures to control them if necessary.

Companion Planting:

To create a harmonious and visually appealing garden design, consider pairing Daphne odora 'Aureomarginata' with the following plants:
