Coleonema Bonsai Seeds

Family: Rutaceae (citrus family)
Common name: confetti bush (Eng.); buchu

This sweet-scented confetti bush is an ideal garden plant which remains beautiful throughout the year. It bears masses of pink flowers during autumn and spring and releases an aromatic fragrance when leaves are crushed.

Coleonema is an evergreen, erect, dense shrub and reaches a height of 0.8 to 1 m. It forms a single stem at the base, from where numerous slender, erect branches grow.

The leaves are needle-like and about 4 to 5 times as long as broad. The petiole is 1 mm long and the teeth at the leaf tip point upwards. The flowers are solitary, terminal on short branchlets or axillary on reduced branchlets, often crowded towards the tops of the branches. The flowers are pink, often white and star-shaped (7 to 8 mm in diameter), have 5 oval petals, 5.0-5.7 mm long, each marked with a distinctive central vein. The entire bush is covered with flowers from May to October, attracting bees, butterflies and other interesting insects to your garden.
