A small to medium shrub which is native to the sandplains of south-western Western Australia. It occurs in yellow or red sand, growing among mallee or mulga scrub. Plants adapt well to most freely draining soil types and prefer a sunny aspect, but will withstand some shade. It is best suited to semi-arid and temperate climates. It responds well to light pruning and is a useful plant for narrow sites. The very showy pink flowers add a touch of colour to our winter garden. This species is not common in cultivation. |
