Tibouchina grandifolia


This big leafed Australian native has a bud! What plant is it in the greenhouse? How tall is this plant? What color will it bloom?

Mandevilla (the vine with the pink flowers) is one of the plants that will be used as cutting stock for propagation labs in class. Portulaca, Coleus, Jade Plant, and others will be used too.
