Variegated Sky Flower (Duranta erecta 'Variegata') is spectacularly grown for its stunning varicolored foliage. The green leaves have creamy yellow edging with light-blue or lavender blooms throughout late spring and summer. For an encore, yellow or orange berries show up for the birds to devour. Treat this plant as a small ornamental shrub or prune it into a tree. It does well in containers or as a screening plant. Expect it to reach 15-25 feet tall and 8-12 feet wide in zones 9-11.

About Variegated Sky Flower

Needing something on your rooftop terrace to hide from the neighbors? This plant can be trimmed into an ornamental tree or espalier if you're so inclined. Wait for it, wait for it. Bloom! The tight clusters of purple blooms are vivid and complementary to the creamy yellow edging on the green leaves. Keep her in full sun (6-8 hours) and water consistently for those to-die-for blooms.

Fun Facts: The plant's genus...

The plant's genus honors Castor Durante da Gualdo, a 16th-century Italian botanist and physician who authored a book in the late 1500s defining medicinal plants from Europe and the East and West Indies. A mature plant will produce thorns and varieties bloom in white, light blue and violet. Duranta belongs to the Verbena family of plants.
