Plumbago Auriculata

Plumbago auriculata, commonly known as Cape Leadwort, is an evergreen flowering shrub indigenous to South Africa. It produces clusters of delicate, sky-blue, phlox-like flowers throughout much of the year, particularly in warm conditions. Its naturally spreading and climbing growth habit makes it suitable for garden beds, borders, informal hedges and covering walls or fences. It thrives in full sun and well-drained soil, attracting butterflies and adding long-lasting colour to the garden.

Care Tips 

• ☀️ Sunlight: Prefers full sun for the best flowering. Tolerates partial shade.
• 💧 Watering: Water regularly while establishing. Once established, it is moderately drought-tolerant.
• 🌱 Soil: Prefers fertile, well-drained soil.
