About This Plant
Daphne transatlantica 'Jim's Pride' (18- / Daphne), 'Jim', is valued for its evergreen presence and seasonal bloom in PNW gardens.
Daphnes are small evergreen and deciduous shrubs grown for their famously fragrant late-winter to spring flowers , a small plant whose perfume can carry across a garden. Refined, slow-growing specimens prized by serious gardeners.
Part shade to dappled shade suits this species. Plant in moist, well-drained, humus-rich, neutral to slightly acidic soil. Hardy USDA Zone 4 to 9. ALL PARTS HIGHLY TOXIC if ingested , site away from children and pets. Do not move once planted; daphnes resent root disturbance. Provide consistent moisture and sharp drainage. Many cultivars are short-lived (10 to 15 yr) but spectacular while they thrive.
For a PNW native ericaceous evergreen of similar character, consider Vaccinium ovatum (Evergreen Huckleberry) , glossy evergreen leaves, urn-shaped flowers, and edible berries native to PNW coastal forests.
