Boronia megastigma โ€˜Luteaโ€™

Botanical Name: Boronia megastigma

Common Name: Boronia

Average Height (cm): 60

Average Width (cm): 60

Description:

A small erect shrub with highly fragrant, yellow bell-shaped flowers and fine green foliage. It has a lovely scent and is covered is gorgeous yellow flowers for quite a long period in the spring.

Garden Design Uses:

One of the hardiest and most versatile of the Boronias in my experience, provided you can give it protection from the afternoon sun and reasonably good drainage such as on a slope, bank, raised garden bed or pot.

Care:

Thrives in well-drained soils with partial shade. Requires regular watering and protection from extreme heat. Prune lightly when young to encourage dense growth and you will be rewarded with more flowers. Better to plant out in the autumn rather than in spring when in flower.
