So RARE there’s hardly any information out there! We’re looking forward to getting to know this cute white-flowered Ursinia from South Africa that has lovely curly foliage. Growing 18” tall & wide, forming a small sub-shrub that is graced in late Spring-Summer with 1.5” white flowers, the backs of which are flushed with purple. Provide good drainage. Combine with Geranium sessiliflorum ‘Nigricans’, Angelica stricta ‘Purpurea’ & Agrostemma ‘Ocean Pearls’ for a sophisticated black & white themed border.
