All-Time Favourite Compact Natives for Small Hedges, Borders and Topiary
Description:
Westringia White Mundi™ (WES09) PBR is a low-growing, spreading coastal rosemary variety known for its soft grey-green foliage and masses of white flowers. Its dense, ground-hugging habit makes it ideal for low borders, mass planting, or erosion control on banks and slopes. With its excellent drought and salt tolerance, it performs exceptionally well in coastal or dry landscapes.
Flowers:
Masses of small white flowers appear mostly in spring and summer, with spot flowering year-round in mild climates. The blooms provide a soft, natural contrast to the foliage and attract bees and beneficial insects.
Foliage:
Fine, narrow, grey-green leaves cover the plant densely, forming a soft, evergreen carpet that holds its shape with little to no maintenance.
Fruit:
Not a significant feature.
