Plectranthus “Mona Lavender”
We recently started carrying the various plectranthuses because they’re moderately drought tolerant in our climate, can handle light shade, and produce a lot of small orchid-like flowers.
They also make good hanging-basket houseplants. This is a very flexible plant. Why didn’t we think of it before?
It’s a hybrid that was cultivated in South Africa, at Kirstenbosch Botanical Gardens. It takes more water in South Africa than here, but if it’s indoor regular water is a must.
