Heliotrope Marino Blue

Heliotrope Marino Blue is a beautiful, fragrant flowering perennial producing masses of rich violet-blue flowers in dense, rounded clusters. The tiny, star-shaped blooms are held above attractive, deep green, textured foliage, creating a spectacular display of colour throughout the warmer months. Renowned for its delightful, sweet vanilla-like fragrance, this charming variety adds a wonderful sensory element to any garden, attracting butterflies, bees and other beneficial pollinators.

With its naturally compact, bushy and well-branched growth habit, Heliotrope Marino Blue is perfect for garden beds, borders, cottage gardens, decorative pots and mixed container displays. The richly coloured flowers contrast beautifully against the lush green foliage, making it an excellent choice for sunny patios, garden pathways and outdoor entertaining areas where its lovely fragrance can be enjoyed. Flowering from Spring through Autumn, this gorgeous variety provides months of colour and perfume.

Easy to grow and relatively low maintenance, Heliotrope prefers a full sun to part shade position with fertile, well-drained soil. Water regularly during warm weather, particularly when grown in pots, and fertilise throughout the growing season to encourage healthy growth and continuous flowering. Remove spent flowers and lightly trim as required to maintain a neat, bushy shape and encourage further blooms. Protect from heavy frosts, particularly in cooler climates.

CAUTION: Harmful if eaten.
