Monrovia® White Cape Plumbago is a tender woody evergreen perennial that can grow as a small sprawling shrub or trained as a vine. Abundant clusters of pure white flowers bloom in summer that last until the first frost. Prefers partial sun and consistently moist well-drained acidic soils, but has good drought tolerance once established. Treat as an annual unless overwintered inside.
