Notes from the plant tag:
A spectacular grafted Australian native shrub featuring masses of beautiful lilac-purple, bell-shaped flowers set against striking, soft, silvery-white foliage. Flowering throughout winter and spring, Gubburra Bells creates a stunning display of colour and texture, providing a wonderful contrast to surrounding green-leaved plants.
Its naturally bushy growth habit makes it an outstanding choice for feature planting, mixed native gardens, cottage-style landscapes and decorative containers. The distinctive silver foliage provides year-round ornamental appeal, even when the plant is not in flower. Nectar-rich blooms attract honeyeaters and other native birds, adding wildlife interest to the garden.
Grafted for improved hardiness and garden performance, Gubburra Bells thrives in full sun and a position with good air circulation. Unlike many silver-foliaged Eremophilas, the grafted form is more adaptable to a wider range of garden conditions, including Brisbane's humid subtropical climate. Water regularly during establishment, then only as required. Light pruning after flowering encourages dense, lush growth. Remove any shoots that emerge from below the graft union.
