I am Trailing Pratia. My family originated from Australia
| I am a dainty native plant. I spread via underground stolons to form a carpet of green with masses of tiny starry white to pale mauve-blue small flowers in spring and summer. My rambling habit makes me great in rockeries and filling in between plants, stepping stones and paving. Hardy I can also make an excellent low traffic lawn alternative. |
