Westringia fruticosa 'Wynyabbie Gem' is a hardy Australian native shrub renowned for its dense grey-green foliage and masses of soft mauve flowers that appear throughout much of the year. Its naturally rounded habit and excellent tolerance to drought, wind and coastal conditions make it an outstanding choice for hedging, screening, borders and feature planting. Low maintenance and versatile, 'Wynyabbie Gem' is perfectly suited to Sunshine Coast gardens.
