Crossandra

Crossandra infundibuliformis

This tropical species from India and Sri Lanka is a shrubby perennial suitable for adding floral colour to gardens in frost-free climates and to indoor and patio containers in cooler ones.

These plants were discussed in greater detail in the 28-04-2023 edition of Get Results Gardening.

More images will be added over time.
