Welcome to oz_native_gardening. Probably not the most inventive name, I know, but it gets my point across!

You can check out the general 'content welcome / er, don't post this here' stuff on the profile page. Feel free to introduce yourself if you want to; but you don't have to. Lurkers are very welcome. :)

Eremophilas. The desert lovers. Literally.

[danilicious]

Eremophilas are a group of extremely hardy, drought tolerant, waterwise choice for planting in Australian gardens. That there are a ton of them, and they all generally look varying forms of stunning, is an excellent reason to place them in your garden. The grow as small trees, shrubs, low-spreading shrubs and ground-covers, and more and more nurseries are offering cultivars.


Eremophila racemosa - one of the more common species to be found in nurseries.
