Blue flowered climber....Asarina SOLD

Joan from Masterton District

This dainty climber has thumb sized blue flowers, likes a sunny position with reasonably supply of water, and flowers all through the Summer. It is not invasive.
It likes to climb up a trellis, or tree trunk, can last several seasons, though now and again new little plants self seed and can be grown in its place.
It is reasonably frost tender, but I have had them get a little frosted but come away again in the Spring.

I have never seen it for sale in plant shops. I got it originally many years ago when I visited a home where it was growing, admired it and was given some seeds.

Name: Asarina
The last photo is the plant for sale in the blue pot. The other photos are from my parents plants.

Pickup is in Kuripuni.
Thanks for looking.

I have only one potted plant of this at the moment.

Price: $12

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
