my favorite daphne


this is my favorite plant in my front yard. as daphne's are known to be the prima donna's of the lawn, i thought i'd honor her here so that she might stay healthy and keep blooming for me. my neighbors were considering getting one until they read a passage in their garden book that said, "yes, daphne's are gorgeous - but suppose you invite 10 people over to see how beautiful your daphne is doing - she could opt to die in 10 minutes time..." this gal is a happy one. here's hoping she stays that way. i love her.
