Trevor introduces Myoporum insulare 'Ground Hug' , a hardy, low-growing Aussie native groundcover that thrives in full sun, smothers weeds, and adapts to both drought and wet conditions, making it a standout choice for any garden.
- Ground Hug is the flattest, lowest-growing form of Myoporum insulare, reaching only 10-15cm in height. It’s an indestructible, wide-spreading groundcover that effectively smothers weeds.
- Ideal for well-drained soils, this native plant thrives in coastal locations, is drought-tolerant, and enjoys full sun. It has been selected for improved tolerance to wet, humid conditions, expanding its potential for growth across Australia.
- In spring, 'Ground Hug' produces a smattering of tiny white flowers, adding visual interest. It performs excellently whether planted in the ground, pots, or in full sun or semi-shade.
- This selection from Ozbreed demonstrates superior genetics, making it the ultimate choice for a hardy, low-maintenance groundcover suitable for various garden types.
