Blue Horizon Emu Bush 140MM

Eremophila glabra prostrate 'EREM1' 'Blue Horizon™'

I am Blue Horizon Emu Bush. My family originated from Australia.

Habit Groundcover - Dense Ground Cover
Plant family Scrophulariaceae
I am a delightful ground cover with a dense habit and spectacular silver-blue foliage. An Australian native my brilliant yellow blooms appear in winter and attract nectar-feeding birds and beneficial insects alike. Hardy I tolerate drought, frosts and coastal conditions. I am a good choice for embankments where I will help with erosion control. I need little water once established and prefer a dry aspect. My pale foliage will brighten the garden and aid in keeping your soil cool.
I am popular and will make you happy because...
