    I've got a young Daphne odora Aureomarginata which made it through last winter with no adverse effects. The leaves do tend to curl up and hang down when it's cold, but they soon went back to normal when it warmed up.

    Having said that, it wasn't a particularly cold winter in comparison to recent years and if it does get really cold then I'll be covering it with some fleece.

    I've bought three of the Eternal Fragrance this year, so will see how they fare, but the smell coming off the flowers is divine :wub2:

    Kath - you and I seem to have the same taste in plants - first the Clematis, then Fuchsias, now Daphnes :snork:
