Linanthus grandiflorus

  • Product number: 536450
  • Origin: California, United States
  • Latin: Linanthus grandiflorus

A sweetly fragrant abundance of white (sometimes lavender-flushed) flowers almost completely covers the very fine foliage, which is also attractive. This Californian beauty diligently blooms all summer! The plant grows wider than tall (50 cm vs. 30 cm), making it a wonderful pot plant (semi-trailing) or a plant for the edge of a flower bed. Once established, Linanthus is drought-tolerant, self-seeds easily, and makes a good cut flower.

Names:
Latin: Linanthus grandiflorus
