Quick Search: Heliotropium - Displayed by Common Name in Ascending Order

Large clusters of deep lavender, very fragrant flowers are produced on vigorous plants. Lovely in containers or borders where their beauty and fragrance can be appreciated. The plants prefer full sun and even moisture. And they will winter easily indoors. They open royal purple and slowly fade to lavender. Unlike other varieties bred for deeper color, 'Fragrant Delight' preserves the vanilla perfume that, to our mind, makes a Heliotrope a Heliotrope.

A unique color, ‘Marino™ Blue’ Heliotrope bears large clusters of flowers an amazing dark blue with white centers surrounding a dark eye. A startling departure from the normal Cherry Pie Plant color, the Marino series has brought out the true blue hues like no other.

Once you try it, you'll be devoted to this Heliotrope. Let's start with the fact that it is simply a beautiful plant. That alone is enough to be enamored with it. However, it pairs that classic beauty with unexpected toughness. It is extremely heat and humidity tolerant, which means both the deep south and far north can be successful with this plant. The habit is somewhat upright, which creates a mound when planted in the landscape and it will flower over the pot edge when planted in containers. It will be a great component plant for combination recipes. Note: like many heliotropes, this plant is toxic if ingested.
