lemmonii CAG00627
CURRENTLY UNAVAILABLEAn aromatic, evergreen, drought hardy, quick growing, Mexican shrub. The stiff woody branches are clothed in dark green leaves, pinnately divided into seven toothed leaflets, that smell remarkably like ripe Passionfruit. Starting in autumn, and carrying on through to spring, branched heads, of golden yellow, daisy-like flowers are freely produced.
An extremely hardy and heat tolerant shrub for any sunny, well drained position. Invaluable for it's winter flowering period and sunny disposition.
Should self seed.
Excellent planted by paths etc., where you brush it as you walk past, releasing the Passionfruit scent that wafts for a considerable distance.
Trim back after flowering or whenever necessary. Cut back hard only to where new growth can be seen.- My notes : Sign in to MY JOURNAL
