Common Names: Blossom Tree; Keurboom
Virgilia is a genus of Southern African trees in the family Fabaceae, having shiny to hairy pinnate leaves and attractive mauve to pink pea-shaped flowers followed by leathery pods.
They are valued as useful ornamental trees by gardeners, particularly the well-known species Virgilia divaricata ('Tree in a Hurry', 'Cape Lilac', 'Blossom Tree') and Virgilia capensis syn. V.oroboides ('Pink Blossom Tree'), despite having a comparatively short life (15 years). They prefer well drained soils; some species will then grow 2 m in the first season.
The common name in South Africa (in Afrikaans) is keurboom, meaning 'choice tree'. Most botanists feel that the various species are simply forms and should be lumped under one taxon. You're buying a pack of 10 Seeds We'll supply you with all the germination & care instructions.
