Buy Gibraltar Bush Clover online. This vining shrub produces a fountain of elegantly arching foliage. In late summer through early fall, an explosion of magenta purple blooms engulf the plant. Showstopping when planted where it can drape over a wall or walkway. In Northern climates, top growth will die down the the ground. Flowers bloom on new growth, so prune all stems down to about 1 ft tall in late winter or early spring. Best planted in full sun with well-drained soils. Avoid over-fertilization, as higher soil fertility will encourage more vegetative growth than flowering.
