Brunfelsia pauciflora Scent sational (Yesterday Today Tomorrow Plant)
Brunfelsia Scent-Sational, commonly known as the Yesterday Today Tomorrow plant features masses of sweetly fragrant, pansy like flowers during spring and summer which literally coat the plant. Most interestingly though, the flowers open blue-violet, fade to lavender, then finally turn white. It grows as a rounded cushion of leathery, green leaves to about 1.2 m tall and 2 m wide. Brunfelsia Scent-Sational is commonly grown as an informal hedge, added to a mixed planting, planted around outdoor living areas, used in cottage gardens, or mass planted alongside a path or on a bank.
Lavandula Lavance Purple
Lavandula Lavance Purple is a variety of English Lavender that grows as a compact shrub and carries masses of small, dark purple-blue flower spikes from spring through summer. The foliage is green-grey and complements the darker flowers nicely as it grows to 70 cm tall and the same wide. Lavandula Lavance Purple is commonly used in cottage gardens, included in mixed plantings and borders, trimmed into a hedge, or grown in a container. A mass planting either as a groundcover or on a bank will give a dramatic display.
