Eye-catching royal purple flowers with a bright magenta-red eye make Ohau hard to walk past when it's in full glory during late spring and into summer. Its foliage is attractive too - green leaves tipped purple on a compact plant. Great plant for new gardens; they grow rapidly and provide shelter for other plants.
Feature:
Beautiful violet-blue flowers for months on end.
Uses:
Attractive garden, border and patio plant.
Position:
Best in an open and sunny position with protection from all but the lightest of frosts.
Care:
Clip spent flower heads to encourage new flowers, feed with a general fertiliser late autumn. Don't let it dry out over summer.
