If you've been to Coffs Harbour you might have been lucky enough to see this native growing in the wild, in the only spot it grows naturally. Endangered in the wild (you can read about the government recovery plan here) it has been cultivated for us gardeners to grow, to save the species for the future.

APPEARANCE: Dense-growing Australian native groundcover endemic to a location in northern NSW. Neat small glossy green foliage is aromatic when crushed; pale pink buds open to small four-petalled white flowers in spring and summer which attract beneficial pollinators.
