The Story
A small-flowered species from the wilds of New Zealand with outrageously if not screamingly colored flowers -- but that's all relative; for New Zealand these are a light lavender. One inch, ruffled, evergreen leaves on 3-4 ft dense shrublets. The flowers are cupped and abundant in late winter through spring and occasionally throughout the seasons. In most places, they are best as container plants. In the garden, they are best suited along the Pacific coast in garden areas with low fertility where they can be kept cool and humid. Deep shade to dappled sun. Frost hardy to upper USDA zone 8 on the "left" side of the country.
