The emerald green flower is the main feature of this cultivar. It has a dwarf habit with unbranched stems, flowering from spring to autumn. It can be a short-lived garden plant but looks outstanding in a pot. Fertilise in spring with a good native fertilizer, watering in afterwards to avoid leaf and root burn.
