PLANT PROFILE
Brachyscome 'Strawberry Mousse' is an ornamental flowering ground cover that offers colour for much of the year.

Flowers are a musky pink, with a gree/yellow centre.

This evergreen, Australian native is fast growing, dry tolerant and low maintenence - perfect for cascading over walls and embankments.

Recognised by some as 'the most beautiful Brachyscome in existence.'

Ideal for ground cover in rockeries, general garden beds and under taller shrubs.

Suits hanging baskets and containers.

Native or wildflower style gardens.

Effective in poolside landscapes and coastal zones.

CULTURAL CARE
Brachyscome 'Strawberry Mousse' has low water requirements so is great for dry areas and for zones that are frequently hit by hot, dry spells.

It is hardy in most soil types that are well draining.

Prune by up to one third during spring to encourage a dense habit and also apply a slow release fertiliser at this time for optimum results.
