Polygala myrtifolia v.24

Polygala shrubs are neat, rounded evergreens that bloom off and on all year long. They are perfect for those spots where you get shade in the summer and full sun in winter. Make wonderful additions in garden borders in warm climates, and they also look great in patio containers. Bloom of purple or mauve with flowers that are great for bouquets and arrangements. The care is minimal, they survive without a lot of supplemental irrigation, but they look best if you water them regularly. Remember that those grown in containers need water more often than those grown in the ground. Since they bloom year-round, they appreciate a little universal fertilizer in both spring and fall.
