DapJur01 was awarded the prestigious honor of Plant of the Year at the 2016 Australian Nursery and Garden Industry Association's National Conference, held in Adelaide, South Australia. Bred by renowned New Zealand plant breeder Mark Jury, Perfume Princess combines the sturdy growth habit of Daphne bhuloa types with the heady fragrance and fl owering performance of Daphne odora varieties. One of the earliest and longest fl owering of all Daphnes, it offers a profusion of sweetly scented blooms all along the stems. Plant trials have shown that unlike most Daphnes, Perfume Princess is adaptable to diffi cult conditions, tolerating a broader range of temperatures — both hot and cold; it also bounces back quickly from a hard cut back and establishes itself in new surroundings with a minimum of work. Masses of large fl owers open blush pink and fade to white. Upright with a slightly spreading habit, growing 4 feet high by 3 feet wide. Hardy to USDA Zone 7. Available in limited quantities in 2017 with greater distribution in 2018. http://www.tesselaar.com/plants/daphne-perfume-princess/ TERRA NOVA NURSERIES Agastache 'Kudos Coral' Agastache 'Kudos Coral' is a free- fl owering, easy-to-grow perennial that produces long-lasting spikes of coral- colored plumes.
