Nursery contributed plant descriptions

A flat ground covering variety grown mainly for its beautiful satiny foliage which is round, scalloped and an unusual greenish bronze. As a garnish, trailing sprays of small, rounded, pale pink, five petalled flowers carry on through most of the warmer months. From New Zealand and Chatham Island stock it is evergreen and less shade loving than most of the European species and is easily grown in moist soil with good drainage, even in a pot. An annual removal of old flowering stems is all the attention required.
