Plectranthus argentatus
Silver Spurflower

Plectranthus argentatus, or Silver Spurflower, is a popular Australian native shrub known for its soft, velvety, silvery-grey foliage and fragrant spikes of small mauve-to-white flowers in autumn, thriving in part-shade to sun, tolerating drought, and offering a great textural contrast in gardens as a groundcover or feature plant, with easy propagation from cuttings.
Maintenance
