A fast growing ground cover ideal for covering large areas such as embankments and driveways. It will cascade attractively over edges. Dense growth will suppress weeds and make a living mulch. The pink-red toothbrush flowers in spring and autumn are bird attracting. Frost tolerant. Feed with a good native fertiliser in spring.
