Unlike traditional star jasmine varieties that climb and scramble, FLAT MAT™ forms a tight, carpet-like mat of small, glossy green leaves that create a neat and uniform finish across the soil surface. New growth may take on attractive bronze tones in cooler weather, adding seasonal interest throughout autumn and winter in Melbourne gardens.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"582\" data-end=\"1279\"\u003eThis hardy, low-maintenance variety thrives in well-drained soils and performs reliably in full sun through to part shade, making it highly versatile for a range of landscape applications. It is ideal for suppressing weeds, stabilising slopes, softening pathways, or planting between stepping stones. Once established, it demonstrates good drought tolerance and handles Melbourne’s variable climate with ease. Although flowering is minimal compared to climbing forms, occasional small, creamy-white, star-shaped blooms may appear in warmer months. FLAT MAT™ is an excellent choice for contemporary landscapes, mass plantings, and low-care gardens where a dense, evergreen ground cover is required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1281\" data-end=\"1308\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1281\" data-end=\"1290\"\u003eForm:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"1290\" data-end=\"1293\"\u003e*Ground Cover\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1310\" data-end=\"1392\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1310\" data-end=\"1326\"\u003eMature Size:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"1326\" data-end=\"1329\"\u003eHeight: 10–15 cm\u003cbr data-start=\"1345\" data-end=\"1348\"\u003eWidth: 1–1.5 m spread (or wider over time)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1394\" data-end=\"1433\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1394\" data-end=\"1405\"\u003eAspect:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"1405\" data-end=\"1408\"\u003e*Full Sun\u003cbr data-start=\"1417\" data-end=\"1420\"\u003e*Part Shade\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1435\" data-end=\"1472\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1435\" data-end=\"1449\"\u003eFlowering:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"1449\" data-end=\"1452\"\u003e*Flowers in Summer\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1474\" data-end=\"1509\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1474\" data-end=\"1492\"\u003eFlower Colour:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"1492\" data-end=\"1495\"\u003eCreamy white\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1511\" data-end=\"1702\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1511\" data-end=\"1530\"\u003eKey Attributes:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"1530\" data-end=\"1533\"\u003e*Suitable for Pots\u003cbr data-start=\"1551\" data-end=\"1554\"\u003e*Drought Tolerant once established\u003cbr data-start=\"1588\" data-end=\"1591\"\u003e*Evergreen\u003cbr data-start=\"1601\" data-end=\"1604\"\u003e*Low Maintenance\u003cbr data-start=\"1620\" data-end=\"1623\"\u003e*Weed Suppressing\u003cbr data-start=\"1640\" data-end=\"1643\"\u003e*Ideal for Mass Planting\u003cbr data-start=\"1667\" data-end=\"1670\"\u003e*Suitable for Slopes and Banks\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1704\" data-end=\"1875\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1704\" data-end=\"1717\"\u003eToxicity:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"1717\" data-end=\"1720\"\u003eConsidered mildly toxic if ingested.
