Plumbago auriculataPlumbago or Cape Plumbago Family: Plumbaginaceae Identification:
Note: Plumbago is a striking and versatile tropical shrub. The light green foliage and sky blue flowers provide an unusual color to the landscape. Left on its own, Plumbago becomes a mounding shrub with long arching stems. With support, these stems will climb like a vine; left alone, they will trail out of planter or down a wall. In cold winters, the plant may be killed to the ground, but will recover quickly in the late spring. Campus Location: Julian C. Miller Hall, west entrance |
