PLANT PROFILE
Bred in Australia, this stunning new selection is the world's first double flowering Alyogyne.

Producing a spectacular mass of flowers throughout early summer through to late autumn, these soft purple blooms smother the plant providing a striking colour display. It is capable of producing hundreds of blooms each season.

Alyogynes occur naturally only in Australia. This genus is closely related to the widely cultivated Hibiscus and the well known Desert Rose.

Alyogyne 'Delightfully Double' is a fast growing solution for new gardens, providing both colour and foliage up to a height of 1.8m.

Plant around entertainment areas for an outstanding colour display.

This is an extremely drought, heat and humidity tolerant variety,ideal for planting in dry zones.

CULTURAL CARE
This variety will perform best in fairly open positions in full sun through to part shade. It is adapatable to a wide range of soil types, providing they are well drained.

'Delightfully Double' will benefit from a prune after the main flowering flush to optimise results in the following season.

Apply a slow release fertiliser as per instructions to maximise results.
