Deinanthe Coerulea

Deinanthe Coerulea - An interesting Chinese plant of herbaceous habit, when happy growing to 2 feet in height and over. Large veined cordate leaves, amongst which nestle the double round flowers of a delicate light saxe-blue color. It is somewhat precocious to grow, and the sun must not reach the leaves, which are easily scorched and checked, but it delights in surrounding warmth, and requires moisture when growth starts in the spring and throughout the summer. Place it in leaf-mould, peat, and good garden soil mixed together, as it is a hungry plant. It is worthy of care and attention.
