Madeira Germander is a plant we have grown for some time without venturing to propagate it - until now. It is a great small evergreen shrub to 80cm with scallop edged apple green leaves. Attractive even without flowers. Through late Spring and Summer upright 10cm tall spikes of rose violet flowers appear. A stunning floral display. Enjoys full sun and (as with all Teucrium) well drained soil. Can handle dry periods to the point of being able to become Summer dormant. A great plant that should be used in the landscape more regularly.
