    Nursery contributed plant descriptions

    This Tasmanian collection to only about 4 feet with densely held olive green, grey-tinted and bubblegum scented foliage. Bears white flowers in early to mid spring, occasionally after. Great for a low hedge or can be lifted to expose attractive golden stringy bark. A tough garden subject requiring only occasional summer water where dry, also withstanding poor drainage and heavy soils. Bright light, upper USDA zone 7.
