What a cutie !!!!!
Jovellana does not have a common name. But it's been called Chatter Flower, Angels Goblet and Tea Cup Flower. It is a rare evergreen, perennial plant
from Chile, that grows around 5 feet tall. Each flower spray has dozens
of ½ inch blooms, which open at different times over a period of 1 to 2
months. The sprays would make an exotic addition to flower
arrangements. Even without blooms this is an attractive plant, with
woody stems and bright, mint-shaped foliage. The leaves have a great
minty-spicy aroma when rubbed.
This is a cool-climate species that might not thrive in warm climates.
The ideal temperature seems to be between 40 and 80 F. It is very rare
in cultivation, and fresh seeds are rarely seen for sale. Great for Pot
culture.
