FIGURE 2 Pathogenicity of Phytophthora palmivora (isolate 23-1093-R) to potted Edgeworthia chrysantha plants in a greenhouse at the end of Trial 1. Symptoms on shoots and roots were evaluated 84 days after not being inoculated (A and C) or after being inoculated (B and D). Plants were grown from rooted cuttings and varied naturally in size.

A South Carolina homeowner submitted samples for diagnosis of young paperbush shrubs that were unthrifty and declining. Steven N. Jeffers et al. present the first report of #Phytophthora palmivora causing root and crown rot on #Edgeworthia chrysantha: https://doi.org/10.1094/PHP-05-25-0143-SC

Earl morning fog and an Edgeworthia bush covered with inverted parasol flowers scented of hyacinth and honey.

🌱 A foggy morning with #Edgeworthia still in flower. Last week I left the window open one inch and noticed the hyacinth/ honey scent during the night and a hundred feet away.

Ik ben zo blij met de dagpauwogen op mijn Papierstruik, zo mooi 😍💛

Like most of you, fellow gardeners, my #edgeworthia is displaying its winter colours at this time of year 😃🌱

Honey scented Edgeworthia flowers resemble inverted parasols.

🌱 #winter #garden #Edgeworthia has recovered from the freeze and fills the area with a honey scent.

Against a blurry garden background, some branches each tipped with one or two pendant umbels of flowers. Each flower in the umbel is a silvery tube opening to a golden yellow interior.

#Edgeworthia chrysantha, paper bush. Blooming now. The perfume is intoxicating.

Stiff silvery white lantern buds of Edgeworthia with trees in the background.

🌱 'Snow Cream' #Edgeworthia chrysanthia is vigorous and a bit hardier. In the Daphne family, it will flower in late #winter.

Bright blue sky in the background, near us several branches, each with a cluster of blooms at the end. The cluster is made up of many small brilliant yellow flowers.

Edgeworthia or paperbush flowers

Edgeworthia crysantha in bloom in central Maryland. Incredible fragrance and deer “proof”. Nonnative blossoms growing all winter at perfect deer height and none lost #HoCoMDGardeners #edgeworthia #deerresistant

Een mooie vlinder (Dagpauwoog) op mijn mooie struik (Edgeworthia) vanwege geur en kleur 💛😊. Eerder zag ik al meerdere atalanta's, een gehakkelde aurelia en kolibrievlinder op mijn mooie struik 😀🦋. De geur is zo zalig 😋.

#SundayYellow is my #Edgeworthia in full bloom now. This beauty packs a beautiful flower and a great scent. It’s definitely worth growing for late winter, early spring blooms 💛

Small, nubby icicles hanging on the bare, reddish, twiggy branches of a tree.

Carol Henderson in Durham, North Carolina, saw these #icicles from freezing rain on an #Edgeworthia plant, also known as paper bush, last Friday. Thank you, Carol! 🥶📸

A juvenile #Edgeworthia -mine was bought for 9.99 and was not in bloom. First bloom happening now. This one has little dark patches that look like flies or bees on it from far away. I was hoping for “all gold” in color.
