Description

My favourite heliotrope, quick-growing, strong and hugely flowery with the most powerful scent of any heliotrope I’ve grown. Its flowers are more open and feathery than ‘Midnight Sky’ and are a paler mauve. One of my desert island plants for pots, which this summer, I picked for vases inside too.

Care Tips

Pinch plants to encourage bushiness and deadhead to entice a continuous bloom.
