Petrocosmea cavaleriei
Petrocosmea cavaleriei is a charming and compact perennial plant, known for its attractive rosette of velvety, dark green leaves and delicate, violet-blue flowers. The leaves form a neat, flat rosette that can spread outwards, creating a lush, textured appearance that is perfect for small pots or terrariums.
In late summer to autumn, Petrocosmea cavaleriei produces clusters of small, funnel-shaped flowers with soft violet petals and a pale yellow centre. These flowers rise slightly above the foliage, adding a subtle but elegant splash of colour to the plant. It thrives in bright, indirect light and requires a well-draining, slightly acidic soil mix to mimic its natural, mountainous habitat.
Petrocosmea cavaleriei is a great choice for plant enthusiasts looking for a low-maintenance, compact plant that adds a touch of beauty to indoor collections. Its petite size and attractive blooms make it ideal for terrariums, windowsills, or shaded areas of the garden.
