Blushing bride is from Mediterranean areas of South Africa, right along the southern cape, so they're right at home in coastal California. Once established they are quite drought tolerant, but they will grow and look their best with deep watering every two or three weeks during summer. | |

Notas de cultivo
Interesting growth pattern, with a single main stem having branches that end in flowers (one to eight per branch). Winter through spring flowers are followed by woody seed pods.
As these plants grow on slopes in crumbled granite, well drained mineral soil is a must.
Interés especial
Excellent and rare cut flower.
