I am a small evergreen, spreading Australian native that produces clusters of golden yellow, button-like flowers for most of the year. My stunning blooms contrast against my soft silver-green foliage.
My blooms can be enjoyed in dried flower arrangements.
I am perfect for planting in native gardens, small spaces, rockeries, alongside pathways, and spilling over containers.
I am known to be a food source for butterflies.
I perform best in an open, sunny position in moist well drained soil, but will tolerate periods of dryness.
To encourage new growth, give me a trim after I have finished flowering.
I am popular and will make you happy because...
Tough I am suitable for coastal gardens, as well as planting beside pools
My grey-silver foliage is a delight with my plentiful golden blooms prominent for most of the year
Hardy and adaptable I am just as happy garden planted as in a container
