Brachyglottis Dunedin Group - 'Sunshine'
Brachyglottis Dunedin Group description: This low maintenance shrub has distinctive elliptical silver foliage, producing rather garish yellow flowers throughout the summer. It contrasts well with golden / purple foliage plants, being suited to front / mid border planting.
Brachyglottis Dunedin Group cultivation notes: This silver leaved sub shrub is both hardy and tolerant of most well drained soils, preferring a hot dry position in full sun where it can be left to form a reliable no-nosense ground cover in the toughest of spots. It should be trimmed back to shape after flowering to retain shape but other than that should look after itself - just avoid shade and wet soils.
