I can't wait for February to come as this is the time my Daphne odora will bloom. It is so nice to see the flowers in winter but the aroma that they emit is beautiful. It is so strong and when you walk by you will enjoy a beautiful scent. I have it by my front door so every time I leave and return I get to enjoy its sight and scent. When I was a child my mom had planted one near our door and I would pick the little bouquets and take them to my teachers. They would always ask what the plant was and when I asked my mom, she would answer with a little frown on her face. I'm sure she wasn't pleased that I was picking them. If you live in a mild climate plant one near your door and I guarantee you will love coming and going from your house in February. If it freezes some in the winter, plant it close to the wall as they are kind of finicky and don't like the cold weather. If you are near a Nursery in February stop in and see if they have one in bloom. I'm sure you will buy it, but only do if you live in a mild climate.
