Westringia ‘Edna Walling Rosemary’ – Coastal Rosemary
A small shrub with soft grey-green foliage to complement the dainty violet-lilac flowers, which are attractive to butterflies and harmless native bees. Attractive as a specimen or flowering container plant; ideal for formal hedging and for mid level screening. Grows in a wide range of soils, and is well suited to coastal positions, as it is very salt tolerant.
