Melianthus major 'Purple Haze'

#foliagefriday 6/3/2020

Those are some lovely leaves 😛 very feathery & fern-like 🌿

Thanks Kerry. I'm hoping that having survived winter so well & having got well established now that it might actually flower this year! 🙄 @kez001uk

Ooh it says good for coastal too, I'm adding into my wish list.

I grew this from seed after being enthralled by photos of them. It's about 5 years old now & I'm hoping it may at long last flower this summer 🙏 @DeborahBanks

The foliage is lovely even by itself Jeff

@jeatacake the flowers look amazing! I’m hoping for you too 🤞🏻

@DeborahBanks & @cyndi Thank you very much. The leaves also have an odd but not unpleasant aroma, a little like peas. I wonder what the flowers will smell like......if the darn thing ever flowers! 😀

Cheers Kerry. It's in the best spot in the garden. South facing & full sun for most of the day, so it has no excuse, lol! @kez001uk

@jeatacake it better earn its keep being in prime real estate!!! 🤑🤣

Definitely! It'll be packing its bags otherwise! 😂 @kez001uk

@jeatacake 🤣😂🤣 there’s always another waiting to take its place 😜
