Flat Pot Ø 50 cm

Ideal for hedges, borders and green roofs

Leucophyllum langmaniae is a small perennial shrub native to Mexico. It produces its deep pink flowers during the summer and until late autumn, in such abundant waves that they completely cover the foliage. As with other plants of the Leucophyllum genus, it is thought that Leucophyllum langmaniae also blooms in response to an increase in air humidity. For this ability to “predict” the rain, it has earned the nickname Barometer plant.

  • Habit and height: compact shrub, 1–1.5 metres tall.
  • Foliage: silvery, soft and velvety to the touch.
  • Flowering: from summer to autumn, in flushes after rain, with pink-lilac flowers that cover the foliage.
  • Hardiness: thrives in poor, alkaline soils and is resistant to drought and salt spray.
  • Ideal for: borders, hedges, rock gardens and coastal gardens.
  • Soil: well-drained, preferably sandy or alkaline.
  • Exposure: full sun.
  • Watering: moderate after planting, then very little water.
  • Pruning: light in spring or at the end of flowering.

From August to October it is covered with abundant waves of flowers pink-lilac, often coinciding with the increase in humidity after the rains: for this reason it is called the barometer plant.

Prefers full sun and poor, alkaline, well-drained soils. Very hardy, it withstands drought and salt spray (down to -10°C); light pruning in spring or after flowering maintains its compact shape.

It pairs well with grasses such as Stipa tenuissima and Pennisetum setaceum, or with the silvery foliage of Lavandula angustifolia and Santolina chamaecyparissus.

FLAT POT SIZE Ø 50 CM

Instant effect: a finished garden from day one

Flatpots are well-established plants, grown in our nursery in a shallow, wide pot measuring Ø 50 cm. They arrive with a full crown and a wide root ball, with roots that spread outwards instead of circling.

The result is an instant impact: as soon as they are planted, hedges, borders and flowerbeds already have the appearance of a mature garden. You don't have to wait years for the plants to grow and, thanks to the wide and shallow root ball, they establish quickly: they are also ideal for green roofs and shallow soils.

They are the right choice for designers, landscapers and companies that need to deliver a finished project, and for anyone who wants to transform their garden in a single season.
