Ruellia Sp

Ruellia species are unusual little plant that grows small trunks and reminds me of a dwarf cordyline with large purple flowers. I have been able to over winter this plant by mulching 4 to 6 inches in winter. A great plant for the hardy tropical garden.

Plants are potted in 4 1/2 inch pots.
