Stylidium Adnatum 'Shady Carpet'

A dense ground cover with dark green fine foliage and dainty pink flower spikes rising above the foliage in summer.

POSITION: Grows well under shade in moist conditions or full sun. Stylidium adnatum is suited to most soils that are well drained.

CARE: Once established Shady Carpet requires little maintenance other than an autumn tip prune. Occasional feeding with a slow release low phosphorus fertiliser is beneficial. Mulching around the base will conserve moisture.

USES: Shady Carpet forms an attractive mat that is beneficial in a range of situations. Such as rockeries, general garden beds or as a tub specimen.
