Duranta repens "Sapphire Showers" has a deep sapphire blue / purple color with light edges to all of the petals, giving the flower a picoteed appearance. The flowers have a light, sweet fragrance, much like carmel. Once the blooms stop on the branches, golden berries will appear. For high performance blooming, cut branches with berries to allow more terminals for blooms. Duranta Sapphire Showers is highly attractive to butterflies of all species and has multiple uses. It may be grown as a shrub; cut to any shape, or may be grown as a standard (tree). It will require more frequent watering if grown in a container in full sun. Once established, it will be highly drought tolerant. Duranta blooms year-round, loves heat and high humidity. Like all Durantas, Sapphire Showers blooms best in full direct sun but will tolerate several hours of shade per day.

3 gallon: $12.00
