Thryptomene strongylophylla

About this plant

This small shrub grows only to a height between 0.4 to 1m but don't let that fool you into thinking it is not spectacular. With dense tiny leaves only millimetres in size, this petite native puts on quite the show between May - November when it becomes covered in masses of tiny pink-purple flowers. Found in both red and yellow sandplains and dunes from SharkBay to Carnamah, this showstopper is also drought tolerant and hardy once established.
