Plectranthus ‘Velvet Elvis’ is a large shrubby perennial with more bling than most!.

This is a rock star perennial that will stand out in a crowd.

 

Plectranthus ‘Velvet Elvis’ has a spreading habit, is more compact than P ‘Mona Lavender’ and has darker green leaves. It will be deciduous in colder areas of New Zealand, and generally flowers for a prolonged period from summer through autumn.
