Thank you both for your comments. It smells divine! All I have to do is open the back door and the fragrance wafts in. Heaven!

BSD: I have given mine no special care. I just plopped it in that bed and it is now at least 3X3 and I have a couple of branches in a glass now that I'm hoping to root. That is a slightly raised bed and has good drainage and I think that's important for daphnes. I have one in Asheville that's in a totally raised bed and this is its first year to bloom for me. It's been in the ground for 4 years, so they take a while to establish and you'd best have it where you want it because they resent being moved. I'll never be without one because they smell like spring itself. So glad I could share it with you both!
