eupatorium
I have been coddling three largish cuttings and now plants of what i
thought by leaves etc. was some sort of Hoheria, Today found they were instead a white flowered Eupatroium unlike the normal dark pink and white ones I knew. Leaves are glossy and green and whole plant seems almost like a shrub the way it grows. Flowers are like Hoheria definitely not purpureum, well they are white anyway, nearest is maculatum but leaves are smooth and shiny and growth is very strong on one stem rather than multiple like most perennials Which E. would this be please? I've got to identify them if i want to offload them -- Janet Tweedy |

Can you have an evergreen perennial? Or is it a shrub? Must ask Sacha if she wants one -- Janet Tweedy Dalmatian Telegraph http://www.lancedal.demon.co.uk |
