Coleonema Pulchellum 'Gold' (Gold Diosma)
Coleonema Pulchellum Gold, also known as Gold Diosma, is a compact, evergreen shrub with bright golden-yellow foliage that adds vibrant colour to any garden. The small, aromatic leaves emit a delightful citrus fragrance when brushed. In spring, it produces clusters of tiny, star-shaped white or pale pink flowers, creating a beautiful contrast against the bright foliage. This low-maintenance plant thrives in sunny, well-drained areas, making it ideal for rockeries, borders, or coastal gardens. Coleonema Gold is highly drought-tolerant and suited to areas with poor soils, adding both colour and texture to landscapes.
Coleonema Gold is a hardy, low-growing shrub that attracts bees and butterflies, enhancing garden biodiversity.
