Double Pink Waxflower (Chamelaucium uncinatum ‘Dancing Queen’)
The Double Pink Waxflower has long been a favorite of ours for its long-lasting winter into spring bloom season. And, now with hybridization, this new variety, ‘Dancing Queen,’ has a more compact growth habit than the original, making it perfect for container gardening. Ruffled, double lilac-pink flowers appear in profusion on the growing tips of this Western Australian native. The attractive needle-like foliage complements ‘Dancing Queen’s’ blooms and it makes a great cut flower. In the past, Double Pink Waxflower has been a mainstay in Valentine bouquets. To be successful, make sure to grow in an acid potting mix.
