If you're looking to add a pop of vibrant red to your garden, look no further than the Helichrysum amorginum Ruby Cluster. With its double (pleniflorous) flowers and compact growth habit, this stunning plant is sure to catch the attention of any passerby.
One of the standout features of the Helichrysum amorginum Ruby Cluster is its blunt/obtuse leaf tips, which add a unique touch to its overall appearance. The leaves themselves are narrow, measuring between 0-1 cm in width, and are covered in a fine layer of hair. The leaf margin is entire, creating a neat and uniform look.
Standing at a height of 20-30 cm, this erect-growing plant is perfect for borders, rock gardens, or container plantings. Its compact size allows it to fit into any garden space without overpowering the surrounding plants.
The inflorescence of the Helichrysum amorginum Ruby Cluster is in the form of capitulum (head), where multiple flowers are clustered together. Each flower boasts a diameter of 2.5-3 cm, showcasing its pleniflorous nature. The color palette ranges from a deep red to a rich dark red (046B), adding a touch of elegance to any garden setting.
One noteworthy aspect of this flowering plant is its lack of fragrance. Although it may not contribute to the garden's aroma, it more than makes up for it with its stunning visual display. The unscented flowers, coupled with the unicolored leaf pattern, create a cohesive and harmonious look.
In terms of its hardiness, the Helichrysum amorginum Ruby Cluster is limited to USDA-zone 8 during the winter months. Gardeners in colder climates may need to provide some extra protection to ensure its survival.
