homearticlesplant of the month › coastal rosemary - westringia fruticosa
Commonly found near the sea,
Coastal Rosemary
(
westringia fruticosa
) can withstand slat spray, but is just as suited to gardens inland.

Great for hedging, and just as suited to a pot (20-30cm), this Australian native is one worth checking out. Keep in mind though, if you're after that familiar Rosemary scent, you won't find it here.

Size:

up to 2m tall

Watering:

Small to moderate watering when established as
Coastal Rosemary
is drought tolerant.

Uses:

To stabilise soil after erosion (natural or induced), pot or grow in the garden, hedging.
