Westringia Wynyabbie Gem

Common Name: Wynyabbie Gem Westringia

Description:
Westringia 'Wynyabbie Gem' is a hardy, fast-growing Australian native shrub admired for its soft grey-green foliage and prolific lavender-purple flowers. Blooming throughout the year, with peak flowering in spring and summer, this versatile shrub attracts bees and other pollinators. It thrives in Melbourne’s climate, tolerating coastal conditions, drought, wind, and frost once established. With a naturally dense and bushy habit, Wynyabbie Gem is an excellent choice for hedging, screening, and low-maintenance gardens. It responds well to pruning, making it suitable for both formal and informal landscapes, including native, coastal, and contemporary gardens.
