Minimum order quantity for this plant in 14cm pots is 3 units
Myoporum parvifolium Mallee Carpet is a hardy, fast-growing Australian native ground cover known for its dense, trailing habit and fine, bright green foliage. In spring and summer, it produces small, star-shaped white flowers, adding seasonal interest while attracting pollinators. Growing just 10–15 cm tall and spreading up to 2–3 meters wide, it is excellent for erosion control, suppressing weeds, and covering large areas in gardens.
To grow Mallee Carpet, plant it in full sun to partial shade with well-drained soil. It thrives in Melbourne, Sydney, Adelaide, and Brisbane, tolerating drought, coastal conditions, and light frost. Water regularly during establishment, then only as needed. Prune lightly to maintain shape and encourage fresh growth. Mallee Carpet is a low-maintenance, resilient choice for slopes, garden borders, and mass plantings, creating a lush and attractive ground cover with minimal care.
