Scaevola Aussie Salute

A WA coastal native with a characteristic fan-shaped flower - each bloom literally halved, as if split vertically. Scaevola is a compact to spreading groundcover or low shrub that handles Perth's sandy soils, coastal conditions, and hot summers with ease. The flowers come in blue, mauve, white, and pink, and the plants bloom for most of the year. Full sun to part shade. Sandy, well-drained soil. Drought tolerant once established. Minimal fertiliser. Tip-prune to keep bushy.
