Boronia Just Margaret 140MM

Boronia heterophylla 'Just Margaret'

I am Boronia Just Margaret. My family originated from Western Australia.

Habit Shrub - Fragrant Flowers

Plant family Rutaceae

I am a very attractive evergreen shrub with pale green sweet smelling aromatic foliage and a profusion of vibrant candy pink bell shaped flowers that hang down along my stems throughout spring. Deceptively hardy for my delicate form I cope well with a range of soils and conditions. I am a great choice for areas where people brush past to enjoy my scent year round. I enjoy consistent moisture and dislike my roots drying out.

I am popular and will make you happy because...

My pale green foliage and pink flowers have a delightful sweet citrusy fragrance

I produce a profusion of vibrant candy pink flowers maturing to white throughout spring

I am ideal for native gardens, ferneries and container planting
