Zaluzianskya capensis

One of the sweetest night-blooming flowers in your grandmother's garden! It has a delectable scent combining vanilla, marzipan and honey- it's so richly aromatic you may be tempted to nibble the flowers! The clusters of pure white pinwheel flowers are brushed with maroon on the reverse. Grow in pots in fertile, very well-drained soil, use an even hand when watering, and shear lightly for repeat bloom.

Beware – the heavenly fragrance of this rare South African perennial may be highly addictive! As the sun goes down, maroon buds open into a profusion of innocent looking white pinwheels. If you’re in proximity, be prepared to swoon, the fragrance is powerfully delicious, like sweet cake fresh from the oven. Most intoxicating after dark, so plant it near a bedroom window! Best & longer lived in a container, it’ll reach 12” x 12” & flower over a long period. Cut back to 4” tall for a second round of bloom. Very EASY to grow & fabulous before-bed aromatherapy for kids, as well as grown-ups. Everyone needs a little “Midnight Candy”!
