Welcome to the Kyora flower blog! For all you’ll need to know about the flowers of the week!

What we plan to do here is educate the public & our clients on the flowers currently in bloom. Sharing with you the flowers that have even us questioning – What is that flower?!?

Tibouchina’s are in flower right now and will continue from Autumn through to Winter. A great small tree growing to approximately 5 metres high when mature.

Tibouchina ‘Alstonville’ is a common variety where there are now numerous other varieties available in different shades of purple.

A dwarf version is available named, Tibouchina ‘Jules’. These can grow to approximately 1m metre high.

Tibouchina’s prefer an acidic soil and a warm sunny position. They love to be pruned after flowering and are virtually pest free! 

These beautiful plants are not suited to cooler inland areas where frosts occur.

Tibouchina’s are a reliable and hardy plant that year after year will provide your garden with a stunning display of colour.
