BRUNFELSIA AUSTRALIS
Yesterday, Today & Tomorrow
A variety of Yesterday, Today
& Tomorrow with fragrant flowers. Flowers
start dark purple
then fade to lavender then to almost white.
All 3 colors are displayed on 1 plant
simultaneously. This shrub will do well in any
location between full sun to filtered light.
Avoid too much shade. It blooms for a long time
during the warm weather. The plant
produces the flowers at the end of the new growth,
therefore the more branches you have
the more flowers you get. To accomplish that,
the plant should be trimmed in order to
achieve a round shape which can be done anytime
of the year, except between
September and November when the flowers start
to develop and open. The plant will
survive temperatures in the low 30's for short
periods. The soil needs to be a little bit on
the acidic side.
