Incarvillea arguta
"Himalayan Gloxinia"

Incarvillea arguta Incarvillea arguta

Loads of fragrant, soft pink, flaring trumpets & elegant finely cut foliage make this rare Chinese sub-shrub a sophisticated highlight in the Summer garden. Most luxurious when grown in part sun & rich soil, it creates a busy 3’ x 3’ form. From July till October, the Penstemon-like flowers are held gracefully on many arching 7” stems. Cutting back spent blooms keeps’em coming like crazy. Prune the whole plant back to about 10” tall in Fall to keep its lovely form & prevent woodiness.
