Blue Moon
TIBOUCHINA

Bring late summer colour to the garden with the graceful Tibouchina 'Blue Moon'.  Bountiful, delicate lilac flowers set against velvety foliage bloom from late summer through to autumn and into winter in mild areas. These gorgeous flowers lighten over time giving greater contrast with the dark purple stamens and rich green leaves.  An excellent choice for striking containers as well as in garden beds and borders. Grows best in a sunny to semi-shaded, sheltered, position, in free draining soil. Protect from frost and fertilise annually with slow release fertiliser.  Evergreen.
