Thryallis

Thryallis has been a little disappointment. My two mistakes:
* Thryallis' visual impact implies you put it around contrasting foliage. Otherwise you will not notice it. Also it is best if you group several bushes together for a bigger visual impact.
* I read it is important to trim it real hard in the winter time. I did exactly that but the next year's flowering was not impressive
This beautiful plant is also fairly brittle.
This being said, this is a nice addition to a yard
This plant will only grow in South Florida
