Heath-leaf Emu Bush

The Heath-leaf Emu Bush is an uncommon, highly attractive native shrub growing 1.5 to 2.5 meters high, featuring fine, narrow, heather-like grey-green leaves that release a pleasant, sweet resinous fragrance when crushed. From late winter into summer, it bears a profuse display of tubular lilac-to-purple flowers that attract native pollinators. Its dense, upright, and bushy growth habit makes it a highly reliable selection for a soft privacy screen in hot, dry zones.
