Cascade™

A dense groundcover or cascading plant with arching or weeping stems, 30cm high and spreading 2-4 metres, with neatly arranged silver-grey foliage covered in clusters
of golden flowers in spring. Small insect-eating birds such as wrens and thornbills will probe amongst the flowers for food. It grows in cool temperate to sub tropical and semi arid climates, thrives in full sun or light shade, and does well in moist, well drained clay to sandy loams; tolerates heavy frost, and is suitable for second line coastal situations.

Uses: spectacular as a curtain, cascading from tall timber planter boxes, free-standing pipes, over walls and down banks; can also be planted as a dramatic carpet.

Maintenance: will retain a dense shape naturally, but stems may be trimmed after flowering or in late summer to keep the ends neat. Feed in early spring or late summer with low phosphorus controlled release fertilizer. If planted in containers, use best quality potting mix, keep moist but not wet.
