I am a unique Australian flowering plant that looks like a moss.
I can be found growing naturally in alpine regions in eastern Australia.
My vibrant green foliage grows 15cm high and spreads to about 75cm forming undulating mounds that look like bright green lava.
I have tiny twin urn shaped flowers dotted above my foliage during summer.
Easy to grow I am great in rockeries where I will mould myself around rocks and other hard objects.
Planting me deep, with just the highest point showing through the soil will help me establish.
I am popular and will make you happy because...
My moss like form and habit of growing around objects suits me to rockeries and beside paths

Hardy and frost tolerant I naturally grow in exposed alpine locations
