Leonotis
leonurus alba * White Lion's Tail |
| The fuzzy white flowers of Leonotis
leonurus alba should only be used where
there is time to remove the spent blooms. They turn brown and stay on the plant and
detract from the unusual flower form. The White Lion's Tail is a
little more tender than the orange and prefers a shadier
environment. When the White Lion's Tail is in bloom it is a knockout.
I am happy to remove the blossoms just to keep it going a little
longer. Leonotis leonurus can be encouraged to blossom for much of
the Spring and Summer with a little help.
