Variegated Plectranthus neochilus is a highly aromatic, succulent leaf perennial, which grows up to 50 cm high and 100 cm wide. The deep blue and purple flowers are borne from spring to Autumn. It is less vigorous than 'Lois Woodhull' and often reverts in part to green (you can just remove these shoots if you wish), creating an interesting contrast. A very useful, versatile species adapted to all situations. The foliage forms an attractive ground cover even when the plant is not in flower.
Successful in both sun and shade where the extremes of these two conditions can produce two quite different, but quite acceptable, looking plants. This is the ideal plant for edges of driveways and hanging over walls where it can withstand rough treatment, even from cars.
It will suffer some damage and dieback in hard frosts, but usually recovers in Spring.
We are a plant nursery in the Algarve specialising in dry mediterranean species. We propagate and grow our own stock in conditions they are likely to endure when they are planted out.
We grow plants that are adapted to the dry land conditions in Portugal and southern Spain, both mediterranean perennials and succulents.
We choose plants that require very little water and maintenance. We produce a range of dry land plants that are typical of the worlds mediterranean regions. These are available to order ready for planting in the wetter months of the year. Please order the plants you need and we’ll have them ready at the best time for planting.
To ensure your new plants adapt and establish quickly, we produce them in special anti-spiral root pruning containers and a range of fibre pots (no plastic waste) with our own tried and tested growing media.
