Rock Thryptomene

The Rock Thryptomene is a remarkably hardy, semi-prostrate to spreading native shrub growing roughly 60cm to 1 meter high and up to 1.5 meters wide. It features tiny, closely packed green leaves that release a pleasant resinous aroma when brushed, and bears a near non-stop display of small, star-shaped light pink-to-white flowers from winter through spring. It is highly drought-tolerant, making it an elite showpiece for sun-baked rockeries or patio pots.
