A perennial mounding plant, Dampiera Blue Moon has bright violet blue flowers from late spring through to autumn. It has a nice compact and ground covering habit, and will flower best in a sunny spot, but can also grow in light shade. Needs a well drained soil. Feed with a good native fertiliser in spring. Great for borders and retaining walls, and will also look great in a large container. Tolerates some frost.
