I am a vigorous grower, yet I stay very compact with a naturally rounded form, with minimal pruning and a maximum size of around 80cm x 80cm.
I branch freely from the base to be bushy from ground level.
My bright, variegated, mint-green glossy leaves are great at creating contrast in landscaping. My flowers are tiny and not a feature but release a honey scented fragrance particularly at night.
Plant me tightly in a row 40 to 50 cm apart to create a low hedge requiring minimal maintenance.
