Eremophila weldii

Description

This is a beautiful easy growing emu bush with small blue-green leaves with little bumps, and deep purple flowers occurring in winter through summer. It grows in alkaline and heavy clay soils in full sun or filtered shade and also handles heavy frost. A real problem solver of a plant! It handles light or heavy pruning and old overgrown plants can be pruned back hard to rejuvenate the plant. Grows 4-5'x 4-5' so can be a useful low hedge or screen. Attracts birds, bees and insects. Original plant came from Kathy Musial at The Huntington Botanical Gardens. This is an easy growing tough plant for new gardeners!
