Plumbago auriculata 'men's fidelity' - Set of 3

Plumbago auriculata is also called 'man's fidelity'. This plant is very suitable for use in a tub, but it also does well in the ground if the plant is protected from moderate frost. Plumbago is a climbing plant that flowers for a very long time. The plant produces an overwhelming mass of flowers in various shades of blue that develop at the end of their elegantly curved stems. The plant flowers from the end of May until September. Plumbago is a fantastic plant for terraces and patios and can also make a beautiful impression in, for example, a rock garden or in the border. Plumbago is a deciduous plant and needs some help to climb. In a pot it can grow to a maximum height of 150 cm, in the ground it can grow to a height of 3 meters, provided there is no severe frost. If desired, the plant can be pruned back heavily from October.

The Plumbago can grow in full sun but also does well in partial shade. Furthermore, the plant loves water. The leaves of the Plumbago are very light green. As soon as it turns yellowish, this means that the plant needs some extra water and/or nutrition. Furthermore, the Plumbago is not very hardy. As soon as there is a risk of frost, it is best to place the plant indoors. It can tolerate a maximum of 8 to 10 degrees of frost (-10 degrees). The plant can be pruned back considerably from October onwards.
