Prostranthera Cuneata


Prostranthera Cuneata (Prostanthera Cuneata)

Small evergreen shrub, supposed to be slightly tender but undaunted by this winter. Lovely scented leaves. Apologies for the shocking grass!

Lovely plant - how tall do you think it will get Karen?

Not very Katnip, only about one foot tall.

We bought ours on ebay, it has not flowered yet, pleased to hear it survived the cold.

None of mine have flowered in their first year DD. This one was put in last spring. I planted two more this spring and neither are flowering!

Hope next year then?

Mine died even in the shed :o(( Glad yours survived.

Yes Dd I should think so . Hywel, in the shed? that's weird. I had three over winter and noe of them have so much as a frosted leaf on! I wonder if yours was attacked by the dreaded weevils!

It wasn't a very good plant to start with. Maybe the VW's finished it off lol.

I was going to ask you if this would be hardy in Scotland - lol, but I see you're in Carnoustie. I'm in Fife.
Love the plant by the way.

Yes, it seems hardy enough Dan...doesn't like being moved though, as I learned to my cost, but I still have one looking really healthy in a very shady spot and flowering now. They seem to flower for ages.
