Duranta 'Erecta' (Golden Dewdrop) is a fast-growing evergreen shrub growing from 2-4ft. tall and 1-2ft. wide. This plant produces shiny rich green leaves and loose clusters of vibrant violet-blue blossoms that are often edged in white. Blooming from Summer to Fall, these blossoms are borne onto vine-like branches due to the golden berries it produces. Highly ornamental, they will ripen in late summer to fall allowing birds to enjoy them. Extremely easy to grow, Golden Dewdrop is widely grown in subtropical and tropical areas. It can also be grown as an annual in cooler areas.

Or left in the ground, they will die back to the bulbs until favorable conditions return, then sprout back. Can attain a mature height and spread of up to 1 foot. Propagate these by division of their rhizomes or just let them spread naturally.
