Country of origin: USA The common name of this plant, Yesterday, Today & Tomorrow, is derived from the profuse multi-hued flowers that grace the full bushy shrub from late spring to early fall. Appearing simultaneously are the flowers from yesterday (white), the flowers from today (lilac purple), and those of tomorrow (medium lavender).

The flowers of are about two inches wide, five petaled and shaped like pansies, and appear in clusters of about 8 to 10 multi- hued blossoms and are lightly fragrant.

It begins blooming in the early to mid Spring and continues to early fall in Zones 9 and South. The blossom is followed by an inedible berry.

The plant matures at about 4 ft to 6 ft. feet, but can be easily maintained somewhat smaller size if desired. The growth habit is open and branching, with bloom being born near the terminal ends of the branches, generally.

Yesterday, Today and Tomorrow was a popular and prized landscape plant throughout the South in the 40's and 50's. The fact that many of those can still be found growing in their original locations, is testament to this plants toughness and long lasting charm.
