Solanum Rantonetti (shrub)
Scientific name: Solanum rantonnetii
Common names: Blue potato bush, Paraguay nightshade
Family: Solanaceae
Origin: South America – Argentina, Paraguay, Brazil, Bolivia
Category: Outdoor ornamental shrub
Climate: Tropical to subtropical
Description: Solanum rantonnetii is an evergreen,
fast-growing shrub that can reach a height of around 2 to 2.5 m
and a width of around 3 m under ideal conditions. It produces tubular flowers,
1.5 to 3 cm in diameter, violet to blue-purple in color with a bright
yellow center. Flowering is abundant, lasting from spring to fall,
and can extend almost all year round. This is followed by the growth of small red berries,
which are considered toxic.
Care:
Light: It should be grown in full sun to ensure abundant
flowering; it tolerates half shade, although this results in fewer flowers and
sparser foliage.
Temperature: Grows well at >>15 °C; withstands light frosts down to around
-5 °C. In regions with a cold climate,
pot cultivation and winter protection are recommended.
Watering: Prefers moderate drought between waterings. Watering abundantly during the summer is necessary
avoiding waterlogging, which damages flowering.
Humidity: Tolerates slightly dry soils, as long as they are well-drained;
prefers environments without excessive humidity.
Fertilization: Use organic fertilizer when planting and slow or potassium-rich
fertilizer in spring and late summer to stimulate
flowering and growth.
Height: 35–40 cm.
Pruning: Light pruning is recommended
after the first flowering (June/July) to promote re-flowering. It can also be pruned more
drastically in winter to maintain its shape and density.
Life cycle: Perennial in mild climates; in cold climates it may lose some of its foliage
in winter, becoming partially deciduous.
Type of substrate:
Light, fertile, well-drained soil.
NĂŁo Pet Friendly: Todos os ĂłrgĂŁos da
especially the berries, causing gastrointestinal discomfort
and other symptoms if ingested by humans or animals.
Fun fact: It is popularly known as “blue potato bush” and received the Award of Garden
Merit from the Royal Horticultural Society in 2012, recognized for its continuous flowering,
resistance to heat and moderate drought.
