This is a truly wonderful little creeping plant which is great for colourful groundcover. The leaves are ovate in shape and grey-green in colour with creamy white margins and with this being an evergreen variety they hold all year round. This is one of the best shrubs for floral interest as the flowers start out in spring and last into autumn. The pretty flowers have 5 petals and are deep violet in colour; they add great interest when they are in flower.

Please take the time to fill out the special instructions box in the checkout area with the details of a neighbour or safe place that your trees can be left. Every effort will be made to make deliveries in this time or on a date requested by you. Mail-Order-Trees cannot be held responsible for delayed deliveries due to factors beyond our control such as Public Holidays or adverse weather conditions which make it impossible to lift bare-rooted trees. In cases such as these, you will be notified.
We can only deliver to physical addresses and not to PO boxes. A complete address including correct postcode must be provided. Incorrect postcodes cause more delays than omitting the postcode altogether. Mail-Order-Trees cannot be held responsible for orders not received if an incorrect address is provided. It will also be necessary to give us details of where to place items should you be out when the delivery arrives. Mail-Order-Trees cannot be responsible for items lost if we have followed your instructions. A contact telephone number can also be very useful to our courier.
