Why Choose Congea Tomentosa?

Congea Tomentosa, with its vibrant bracts and versatile growth options, is a must-have for any garden enthusiast. Its low maintenance, coupled with its ornamental, environmental, and medicinal benefits, make it a valuable addition to your outdoor space.

Versatile Growth Options

In the Ground:

  • Height:

Grows up to 20 feet, making it a striking addition to any garden.

  • Appearance:

Features long, trailing branches and clusters of beautiful, petal-like bracts.

  • Function:

Can provide shade when grown over structures like pergolas or arbours.

In Pots or Grow Bags:

  • Versatility:

Can be pruned and maintained as a shrub, ideal for balconies, patios, or terrace gardens.

  • Container Size:

Start with a 12x12 inch pot/grow bag for young plants; mature plants may need 18x18 or 24x24 inch containers.

Soil and Climate:

  • Soil:

Prefers well-draining, fertile soil with a slightly acidic to neutral pH (6.0 to 7.0). It’s adaptable to various soil types.

  • Temperature:

Thrives in temperatures ranging from 15°C to 40°C. Above 40°C, consider growing it under a shade net.

  • Blooming Time: 

Congea Tomentosa typically blooms from late winter to early spring, with the exact timing depending on the climate and growing conditions.

Leaf and Flower Characteristics:

  • Leaves:

Light green, papery, velvety, with prominent veins and an elliptic to ovate shape.

  • Flowers:

Small and not very fragrant, but the showy bracts surrounding them are the main attraction.

Beautiful Bracts: A Dynamic and Colourful Display

The pink, velvety bracts surrounding the flowers are the true showstoppers. These bracts change colour from pink to lavender to grey over several weeks, adding a dynamic and colourful display to your garden.

Care Instructions:

  • Soil:

Use well-draining, fertile soil.

  • Water:

Ensure the plant receives enough water but avoid over-watering.

  • Fertiliser: 

Apply cow dung manure, vermicompost, and bone meal four times a year.

  • Pruning:

Trim after flowering to maintain size and shape, and remove dead or overcrowded branches.

  • Pests: 

Watch for aphids, mealybugs, and spider mites. Neem oil and organic pesticides can help control these pests.

Uses:

  • Ornamental:

The flowering clusters are perfect for bouquets, floral arrangements, and decorative wreaths.

  • Environmental: 

Helps absorb pollutants, releases oxygen, reduces soil erosion, and attracts pollinators.

  • Medicinal: 

Traditionally used to treat fever, headaches, rheumatism, dysentery, and urinary tract infections.
