Yesterday Today Tomorrow (Brunfelsia latifolia)

Brunfelsia latifolia – commonly known as Yesterday, Today, and Tomorrow – is a stunning, evergreen shrub admired for its unique flowering display and delightful fragrance. This tropical plant features broad, glossy green leaves that provide a beautiful backdrop for its star attraction: the flowers. What sets Brunfelsia latifolia apart is the color-changing nature of its blooms. Initially, flowers open in deep violet, then gradually transition to a soft lavender, and finally fade to pure white, allowing all three colors to appear on the plant simultaneously. Ideal for gardens, patios, or even container planting, Brunfelsia latifolia thrives in partial shade and well-drained soil, making it perfect for adding a splash of color to shaded areas. Not only is it eye-catching, but its sweet fragrance fills the air, especially in the evening, creating a serene and inviting atmosphere. With proper care, this shrub can grow up to 3-5 feet tall, bringing lasting beauty and a touch of tropical elegance to any space.
