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.
