Internationally recognised with an 'Award of Garden Merit' from the prestigious Royal Horticultural Society in the UK, Mona® Lavender is a particularly attractive form of Plectranthus that does not spread like other members of the family, but rather forms a neat low shrub with an upright, erect habit. Numerous spikes of lavender coloured flowers begin to appear from late summer through autumn complimenting the ornamental foliage of deep green leaves with dark wine purple coloured undersides, typical of many of the Plectranthus species.
Plectranthus Mona® Lavender is a wonderful solution to shady areas in the garden as well as making an ideal container or basket specimen for sheltered patios or entertainment areas. Mona® Lavender originates from South Africa and was, in fact, bred at the famous Kirstenbosh Botanical Garden in Capetown.
