Description

Spreading heart-shaped leaves that trail with unique green, purple, and orange flowers in summer, followed by red berries. A rare plant originating from the North Island of New Zealand. Its sprawling habit makes it a useful groundcover.

Care

Use a well-drained, organically rich potting mix in containers. Water regularly during warm weather. For continual good health and growth, use a controlled slow-release fertiliser.

Ideal for hanging baskets, rockeries and pots.
