Philotheca myoporoides ‘Galaxy’

Value: $ 15 

This closely branched shrub grows 3-4 feet high and is nearly round in profile. The stems are neatly lined by narrow 1-2 inch deep green, aromatic leaves. The younger shoots carry profuse clusters of starry white flowers opening from pink-tinged buds over several weeks in late winter and spring. Will thrive in sun or light shade, in well drained, non-alkaline soils, with moderate to occasional watering. UCSC/Koala Blooms introduction.  Hardy to 15 degrees or less.
