- Westringia fruticosa ‘Zena’
A hardy and naturally compact plant that responds beautifully to clipping and shaping, so makes a good hedge and topiary specimen for formal native gardens. Drought and frost tolerant, and can handle salty winds, so is good for coastal plantings. Likes a well drained soil, sunny to lightly shaded spot.
