Crowea species and cultivars 
 
A highly ornamental but hardy flowering low native shrub ideal for mass planting for high impact when in flower.  Croweas can be used as a background or understorey in mixed beds. They have aromatic foliage and flowers that will attract native bees and butterflies to your garden. Croweas prefer well-drained soils and some root protection with mulch or groundcover planting and require some supplementary water through summer.   Moderate tolerance to frost and coastal exposure.  Some popular cultivars include 'Festival',  'Edna Walling' and 'White Star'.
