Talinum paniculatum | Jewels of Opar
This is a fabulous plant with its mounds of chartreuse green foliage and a profusion of airy wands of tiny pink flowers, that appear from late summer through to early autumn. The bees adore this plant as do other pollinators. The seed pods are in fabulous earthy tones and look great dried as well.
Plants will gently self-sow, however, most gardeners don’t find it to be problematic as extra seedlings are easy to pull up and replant should you decide to keep them.
