You’ve probably realized by now that Cestrums are some of our favorite plants here at Bustani Plant Farm. Greystone Gold is a cultivar developed by North Carolina plant enthusiast Norman Beal. He was kind enough to share cuttings of this awesome plant with me during a tour of his garden in 2009. Its unique pale yellow bloom color is unlike anything we’ve seen in a hardy Cestrum. Just like the other Cestrums we offer, Greystone gold has the same winter hardiness, summer toughness and long season of flower production.
