BRUNFELSIA
PAUCIFLORA 'COMPACT'
Yesterday, Today & Tomorrow
A
dwarf variety of Yesterday, Today & Tomorrow growing to no more than 5'-6'
on average.
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 only blooms once a year in the fall, but the amount of
flowers produced is
incredible and can last for over 1 month. 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.
