The “Ternata” is a lovely evergreen plant that is enjoyed for its frequency of blooms. It is drought-resistant and can tolerate various pH levels and soil types as long as they are we-drained. They prefer full-sun, but like to be sheltered. The lovely bouquets of star-shaped, white flowers bloom throughout most of the year, except summer. The flowers have a wonderful fragrance that attracts a number of pollinators, like bees and butterflies. It is a medium-sized bush that exhibits an overall rounded appearance. The foliage is composed of palmately-divided, oval leaflets, usually in what appears to be a group of three leaves. These, too, contribute to the plants overall pleasant aromas. This plant is hardy in most of the UK. Some suggested uses include: planting them along wall-borders, using as shrubs for hedging in a small- to medium-sized city garden, and if well-kept can even be planted in pots or tubs and brought in for areas with harsher winters. In addition to their beauty, these plants offer several positive benefits which are sure to enrich your green spaces with wonderful smells and helpful garden creatures. Show more
