Physostegia virginiana 'Rosea'

  • Product number: 600190
  • Origin: North America
  • Latin: Physostegia virginiana

A free-flowering plant from North America. This variety has pink tubular flowers; they grow on almost square stems in a short, pointed cluster at a height of 60 cm. It is a long-lasting cut flower, florists love it! The flower owes its name to a special characteristic: the flower can be rotated around its axis and then very slowly springs back to its original position. If you push the flower sideways, it will stay in that position and will not return to its original position.

Latin: Physostegia virginiana
Dutch: Scharnierbloem
