Introduction:R.H.S. Award Winner Exposure to cold is recommended for most Chilean seeds. Full germination instructions will be provided with each packet of seeds.
Description:If you're looking for something decidedly different to try in your garden, you won't regret having a go with this small and charming, semi-evergreen (evergreen in a mild winter) shrub. From Chile, it has erect branches and neat and tidy foliage. During summer it produces panicles of some of the most delightful flowers you are likely to see. Closely related to Calceolaria, they bear a marked resemblance to those flowers but are two-lipped and distinctly bell-shaped. Each half an inch or so across, they vary in colour from white to pale violet-purple enhanced by purple spots and yellow throats. Give it a warm, sheltered, sunny spot and grow some in your greenhouse where it can be kept much smaller. May be hardy outside in some regions with frost-free protection in winter. 2-6 ft.
Classification: Hardy, RHS Award, Shrub
Price: £3.74 per packet
