Alyogyne huegelii
The flowers are hibiscus-like and short blooming. They appear from spring through summer to autumn in colours from pink to lilac and purple, often with an eye. A fast-growing shrub which grows to 1m plus in height and spread. It thrives in sandy and gravelly soils and can be grown as a conservatory plant.
Planting
From Early Spring TO Early Spring
Alyogyne requires a well drained soil, but can be grown in sand, loam or clay soils. It can be grown in full sun, or in partial shade. Protection from strong winds is desirable.
Propagation by cuttings
From Early Spring TO Early Spring
Alyogyne can be readily propagated by cuttings. 4" semi-ripe cuttings are recommended, but soft cuttings can also be successful. Cuttings taken in spring generally establish well but cuttings can be taken in early autumn if summers are very wet and winters are not too severe.
