This native plant gets its common name from a belief that it grows in spots where the rocks are rich in gold. We don't know if it works in reverse - plant it and you'll strike a nugget - but it's worth a go, we reckon!
Would look great mingled with flowering sages, and native white mint bush, for masses of flower colour.
