PLANTS OF GLORY BUSH - TIBOUCHINA URVILLEANA

Nice shrub for outdoors in mild climates. Excellent indoor plant in its early years.

Perennial shrub 1-2 m tall. Erect with semi-woody stems. Velvety, dark green leaves. Intense blue-violet flowers.

Prune after flowering. In the garden, protect the plants from wind and cold. Indoors install the plant in a very bright place.

Dig a hole at least two or three times as wide and deep as the root ball. Take out the plant from the container and loosen roots to allow them to spread out in all direction. Cut possible broken roots. Mix the soil extracted with a substrate and fill part of the hole with the mixture obtained. Place the plant in the hole and cover with the remaining mixture. Compact the soil around the plant and water thoroughly.
