This plant was selected for its low height and spread together with the attractive grey wedge shaped leaves. The new leaves are a pinkish purple and provide a great contrast. The species occurs naturally across the south coastal region of WA The flowers are a purple colour and are produced from spring through to autumn. Bird attracting. It grows naturally in sand, granite sands and coastal sandhills. A very desirable plant for landscape use because of the foliage colour and new growth.
