Daphne odora Aureomarginata (aka Daphne japonica Striata), commonly known as Variegated Winter Daphne, is an erect and rounded shrub carrying leathery, dark green leaves that have a thin, yellow edge. The highlight are the clusters of highly fragrant, purple-pink flowers which appear in late winter and spring.
