Description

The Princess Flower is a rangy, loosely constructed evergreen shrub with oval, velvety leaves that are 3"-6" in length. Dramatic and elegant, 3" wide royal purple flowers form at the ends of the branches during the warm season. The shrub has very eye-catching flowers. When grown in the warmer valley areas, this plant prefers protection from hot, drying winds.
