Cornutia Grandiflora Tropical Jamaican Lilac Live Plant Bush Showy Purple Lavender Bloom Fragrant Leaves 4 Inch Starter Size Pot

Cornutia grandiflora is a lesser-known, large growing, flowering tropical shrub that is native to Costa Rica. It matures as a large upright shrub with large, fragrant, velvet-textured, sage green foliage and unusual square-shaped stems.

Large racemes of purple and lavender flowers appear at the terminal ends in a long bloom cycle beginning in late Spring through early Summer. It is often called Tropical or Jamaican Lilac. However it is the leaves and not the flowers that have a fragrance that is described as similar to lilacs.

The flowers are attractive to bees, so this plant is a great choice for Pollinator and Habitat Gardens. It can be incorporated into mixed perennial beds, grown as a large hedge, or in large garden pots and requires little care or maintenance.

If you have purchased these plants for a habitat area, please note we recommend all plants for habitat use, from any source, be quarantined for 30 days before introducing them into the habitat.

Condition: One (1) well-rooted, starter-size plant with an approximate 4-inch-diameter root zone. Plant will be a minimum of about 6 to 12 inches tall and have no blooms or buds on arrival.

*Limited Conditional Warranty: Plants are guaranteed to arrive alive and in good and viable condition. The warranty is conditioned on the Seller receiving prompt notice, within 24 hours of delivery, of any questions or concerns about the plant\'s condition. Notice must include photo validation. No other additional, extended, or long-term Warranty is expressed or implied.
