The "Fly Bush' is an indigenous, aromatic succulent herb. The leaves are grey-green, fairly hairy and sticky. Blooms with deep blue and purple flowerheads from Spring to Autumn. A hardy and versatile groundcover that spreads quickly, also very effective on steep slopes to prevent corrosion. Extremely suitable for coastal gardens. Very easy to grow and thrives in hot, sunny conditions/water-wise. Believed to be a snake, mosquito and fly-repellent, because of its strong, aromatic smell.
Has excellent air-purifying qualities.
