Tell Me More...
A richly fragrant angel 'scent' from above to grace your garden with its beauty and powerful energy. Linear leaves and tall stems hold tons of large, orchid-like flowers that fascinate the beautiful butterflies, drawing them into your garden all summer long. Many people refer to this tender perennial as a 'thriller' because of its upright structure and ability to instantly animate your pots and borders. Angelonia Archangel Dark Purple bares vibrant, deep purple blooms with a fine texture that many compare to snapdragon blooms. They flower continuously, providing an extended season of brilliant colour. We love planting these near a window or door where the deliciously fruity fragrance can float in and scent your home. These are low maintenance, drought and humidity tolerant. They love the heat and grow most successfully in moist but well-drained soil in part sun/part shade. As relatively light feeders, you'll only need to apply an all-purpose fertiliser one a month.
