'Briggs Moonlight' daphne is grown for its stunning foliage: luminous creamy-ivory leaves with narrow green margins. Pale pink flowers are secondary but fragrant. This compact shrub (1–3 ft.) lights up shady borders and creates striking contrast. While daphnes have a reputation for being finicky, they are generally beautiful, low-maintenance shrubs when sited correctly.
Seed in cold frame when fresh; softwood cuttings early summer, hardwood late summer. Southern blight, Verticillium wilt, rots, aphids, scale.
