Melianthus major - 2020

Melianthus major - 2020 (Melianthus major)

This South African evergreen suckering shrub needs to carry the top growth through the winter to carry its flowers, but it usually gets frosted back to the ground. I planted this 20 years ago, and this is only the third time it has flowered here
