Casuarina ground cover

, , ,

This is a Casuarina ground cover called ‘Shagpile’, it creates the most amazing spill over plant and when grown straight along the ground develops its own bumps and waves, it is the most tactile plant. I think Casuarinas are beautiful plants whether ground cover ,shrubs or trees, they grow extremly fast, put up with incredibly harsh conditions and when in flower have a stunning bronze highlight to them. This particular ground cover is perfect for a planting that needs foliage contest, it would look excellent with broad leaf grasses, or anything with grey or silver leaves such as Eremophila glabra prostrate.
