City Farm Plant of the Month July 2023: Pandorea jasminoides rosea
Our Plant of the Month for July 2023 is Pandorea jasminoides rosea, commonly known as Bower of Beauty.
An attractive hardy vine with dark, glossy leaves and large pale pink blooms with a deep scarlet throat. The fruit is an oblong woody capsule.
This is a hardy climber and tolerates most soils and will cope with full sun, but prefers a little shade.
This plant loves a good prune and in early Spring fertilise well with a native fertiliser and you will be well rewarded. This plant attracts bees, butterflies and birds.
