Star of Sapphire Flower (Browallia hybrid)

Color Name: Endless Illumination

Commonly referred to as the star of sapphire flower. Browallias are one of the few flowers that grows best in light shade. Displays a neat mound while producing charming purple flowers.  The Endless series performs beautifully in baskets and in landscapes. Perfect for combination containers!

Growing Tips: Regular watering of Browallias is essential, and a weekly feed to promote flowering, and maintain a long flowering season. Browallia dislikes cold. The plant is prone to become straggly, and should be trimmed back, and dead/weak stems removed. In late autumn flowering ceases, and the plant dies back.
