Boronia Purple Jared

Purple Jared Boronia is a beautiful, highly fragrant evergreen shrub that produces masses of deep purple, bell-shaped flowers from winter through spring. The fine green foliage is delicately aromatic, providing year-round interest and adding to the plant’s appeal. A hybrid of Brown Boronia, this dense, compact shrub is surprisingly hardy and adaptable, making it an excellent choice for native gardens, rockeries, borders and containers. Its richly scented flowers also make an excellent choice for cut flower arrangements. Prune by approximately one-third after flowering to maintain a compact shape and encourage strong flowering in the following season.

Soil: Well-drained soil. The boronia benefits from a cool root zone, with a generous layer of mulch helping to protect the roots from excessive heat. 

Conditions: Part shade. Coastal and frost tolerant.

Size: Height 0.50m x width1m
