Stylidium debile


Stylidium debile F.Muell., a triggerplant from Queensland and New South Wales in Australia, is in near constant bloom in my greenhouse. They bear small, attractive flowers on multiple inflorescences and are easily propagated by cuttings. Of all the Stylidium in cultivation, this is perhaps the most common because it seems to thrive on neglect and tolerates nearly any conditions. For more, see the International Triggerplant Society.
