  1. #PlumbagoEuropaea, aka the #commonleadwort, is a plant found in the Mediterranean Basin and Central Asia.

    It’s also 💜-ing #melbourne at the moment!!

    It’s everywhere and blooming with vigour.

    This one is a wild-child… growing in a carpark and very happy indeed. It has spread to around 1.7 metres tall and about 5 metres wide.

    Most of its blooms are full, the petals are shaped and defined with a single indentation along the length of each petal, from the ovary (centre), extending out the to the rounded petal edge.

    The violet colour is consistent and gorgeous.

    #Plumbago here has been a real pleasure this summer (and autumn!).
