Daphne striata is a shrub, of the family Thymelaeaceae. It is native to the European Alps and the Dolomites. [1]
The shrub is semi-evergreen, and grows up to 30 cm tall. Its branches grow tall and slender and its leaves grow narrow. It grows in cool and moist environments, making mountain environments most ideal. It is often found in short grassland and low scrub at altitudes of 1500 to 3000 m. [2]
A shrub or bush is a small-to-medium-sized perennial woody plant. Unlike herbaceous plants, shrubs have persistent woody stems above the ground. Shrubs can be either deciduous or evergreen. They are distinguished from trees by their multiple stems and shorter height, less than 6–10 m (20–33 ft) tall. Small shrubs, less than 2 m (6.6 ft) tall are sometimes termed as subshrubs. Many botanical groups have species that are shrubs, and others that are trees and herbaceous plants instead.
