Boronia


Boronia Heterophylla



This spring time favorite has a pleasant sweet herb/citrus scent and blooms with many hot pink bell shaped flowers that are set amid soft, needlelike leaves. Heterophylla is an excellent accent/ filler flower
Boronia belongs to the citrus family of Rutaceae and is named after an 18th century Italian botanist, Francesco Borone.

"Original" Heroman's florist loves the sweet smell of boronia during its availability.
