full sun

A small to medium shrub to 1.5m high and wide. It has very distinctive silvery, hairy stems and foliage. The leaves are narrow and soft and provide wonderful contrast to the mauve/lilac tubular flowers in late winter-summer.
Eremophilas prefer a dry climate in well drained soils. Plant in a sunny to lightly shaded position in an open area with good air circulation around the foliage. Well suited to containers and coastal gardens.
