Product Description
An absolute gem of a winter flowering plant that's little seen but a real strong performer that's not grown widely enough, this new release 'Red Dragon' adds an amazing new colour for winter gardens
In late winter and early spring, before much colour at all (even before daffodils!) it produces intriguing red & orange lightly scented flowers, smothering bare stems as the flowers are produced before the leaves.
It is a relative of the Daphne, sharing it's preference for cool, lightly shaded spots and is very hardy, requiring little or no maintenance. It will surprise you every winter for years to come!
