Boronia ‘Flamingo’ – 140MM

(Not currently available to be ordered)

I am Boronia Flamingo. My family originated from Western Australia

Botanic Name: Boronia pulchella x B. heterophylla ‘Stella’ ‘Flamingo’

**Shrub/Herb – I smell great!**
I am a small to medium upright, evergreen shrub with long, narrow, aromatic leaves. I become completely covered with masses of pink bell shaped flowers from late winter to spring. As my flowers age they fade to white. Bred by Kings Park and Botanic Garden, I am hardy and tolerant of most soils and conditions but prefer a free draining neutral to acidic soil rich in organic matter. I enjoy a well-lit position protected from the hot afternoon sun and will perform better with consistent moisture particularly during dry spells. I am moderately frost tolerant. Give me a light prune after I finish flowering to maintain my attractive shape.
