What plant can bloom profusely in full shade in Winter
Philippine violet (Barleria cristata)
- π¬ Philippine violet (Barleria cristata) - is a blooming star for a shade garden! It is a cheerful, fuss-free shrub that can brighten up shady spots with its trumpet-shaped flowers.
- π¬ Standing about 3-4 feet tall, it fits perfectly as a hedge or can be trimmed into neat shapes for a tidy look.
- π¬ Its flowers, in lovely shades of lilac purple, mauve, white, or even striped, burst into clusters from November to mid-December, adding a pop of color when many plants take a rest.
- π¬ Each flower lasts a couple of days, only to be replaced by fresh blooms from its many buds. The fallen petals create a gorgeous purple blanket around the plant, making it a visual treat even on the ground.
- π¬ This plant thrives in both sun and full shade! It doesn't ask for much - just a little pruning now and then to keep it bushy and happy.
- π¬ Add this eye candy to your shade garden, and let these Winter flowers steal the show!
- π¬ Philippine violet is also a perfect exotic plant for container culture or even an indoor collection.
