Daphne cneorum, the garland flower or rose daphne, is a species of flowering plant in the family Thymelaeaceae, commonly found in various pine forests across Europe.[2][3] It is a prostrate spreading evergreen shrub to 20 cm (8 in), grown for its dense clusters of highly fragrant pink flowers in spring.[4][5][6] All parts of the plant are poisonous to humans.[7] Two common diseases are known as daphne sudden death syndrome and daphne virus X.[2][8][9]
The Latin specific epithet cneorum comes from Greek origins and means “like a small olive bush”.[10]

One of the more common viruses affecting daphne cneorum, and other species of the genus daphne, is daphne virus X.[9] It was discovered that in-vitro daphne cneorum cultures can be used as a growing medium to detect if other plants are infected with the disease.[9] This allows for faster identification of diseased plants, thus allowing for prevention of the spread to other plants within nurseries, gardens, etc.[9]
