I am a compact native plant with stunning blue foliage that can be enjoyed all year round.
I produce masses of purple and yellow flowers from September through to November followed by bright blue ornamental berries.
I can be mass planted in many garden settings, including alongside paths and driveways.
Hardy I am both tolerant of drought and cold.
I perform best in a full sun to part shade position in well-drained soil.
I need very little maintenance, however, to keep me looking at my best remove my older leaves as required or cut me back halfway every 3-5 years.
