Thryptomene saxicola Supernova

“Supernova” is a delightful, small shrub with a horizontal branching habit. It has long and slender stems that carry tiny and aromatic, dark green leaves. Masses of small, white flowers adorn the branches from winter through spring. This evergreen typically grows to 75 cm tall and 1.2 m wide, performing best when planted in full sun or partial shade on a sheltered, well-drained site. It tolerates moderate frost and coastal environments. “Supernova” is commonly included in a mixed or border planting, maintained in a container, planted around outdoor living areas, included in coastal and “white” gardens, or used to provide winter colour. The flowering stems are often used in floral arrangements.
