Wynyabbie Gem Coast Rosemary
Westringia ‘Wynyabbie Gem’
Wynyabbie Gem Coast Rosemary is a stunning Australian native shrub, valued for its long-lasting floral display and tidy form. It is covered in small, gray-green leaves and produces a prolific show of delicate, star-shaped, lilac-purple flowers nearly year-round in mild climates. It grows into a dense, rounded mound. Exceptionally tolerant of coastal winds, salt spray, drought, and poor soils, it is a supremely low-maintenance and colorful choice for hedges, foundation plantings, or decorative containers in sunny locations.
