Daphne odora, Thunbg. (D. sinensis, Lam. D. indica, Loisel., not Linn.). Shrub, to 4 ft., with glabrous branches: Lvs. oblong-elliptic, acute at both ends, bluntly pointed, glabrous, 2-3 in. long: fls. in dense, terminal heads, very fragrant, white to purple; ovary glabrous; bracts 6-10, lanceolate, persistent.
