Coleonema pulchrum (Pink Diosma)

(Diosma angustifolia)

Coleonema pulchrum is a perennial evergreen shrub with fine , aromatic, yellow-green leaves and dainty pink flowers. Pink Diosma has been in trade since 1926. However, it is easily confused with its close relative Coleonema pulchellum (which has naturalised in several states in Australia), and may have been mis-identified. Coleonema pulchrum has no known invasive traits. C. pulchellum is considered a weed in several states.
