"This evergreen shrub is originally from Australia. It´s been cultivated for its soft foliage. Blooms from early spring through mid-fall and has orange-red flowers that are hidden between the foliage. Grows 2 to 3 m high with a similar width. Because of his tolerance to salt and wind, it is an excellent coastal plant, but not very suitable for tight or compact soils. The growing rate is medium to fast.
