Description

Agonis flexuosa 'Nana' - dwarf willow peppermint, dwarf willow myrtle

APPEARANCE : Dwarf-sized native shrub with a compact dense habit and small white flowers during spring and summer. New growth emerges lime and rust, then ages to a soft green. Young leaves are more slender than the full-grown form, giving a more willow-like appearance from a young age.
USE FOR : Hedging and edging, native gardens, wildlife gardens, coastal gardens, low maintenance gardens, topiary, water-wise gardens, bonsai, erosion control and container planting.
LOCATION : Full sun to light or dappled shade in any well-drained soil, especially sandy soils. This species is very waterwise once established.
CARE : Mulch and water regularly until the plant is established, usually around 12 weeks. Feed with a slow release native fertiliser during spring. Responds well to pruning so can be shaped as required, can develop a loose growth habit if left unpruned.
HEIGHT & WIDTH: 1 - 2 m H x 1 - 2 m W
YOUR PLANTS : These are tubestock plants with young healthy roots that will establish quickly in your garden. The pot size is 80 mm x 42 mm wide.
