This plant attracts attention because if its profusion of summer sky-blue flowers which it carries in clusters. We recommend pruning the flowers off when finished as this will encourage more flowers until early autumn.
An evergreen shrub native to South Africa that does not like temperatures below 7 Celsius, we recommend over-wintering in a conservatory or frost free greenhouse. We also recommend pruning after it has stopped flowering to encourage a bushy shape for the following year.
