Dampiera diversifolia – Native Blue Dampiera
Dampiera diversifolia is a beautiful Australian native groundcover prized for its brilliant blue to violet-blue flowers, attractive green foliage and naturally spreading habit. Flowering predominantly through spring and summer, it brings intense colour to native gardens, rockeries, borders and informal landscapes.
