Moderate-growing evergreen shrub to 3’ tall and wide. This compact-growing variety forms a rounded-mound of glossy, bright-green foliage accented with profuse clusters of showy, rose-pink flowers that appear throughout the warmer months of the year, attracting butterflies and nectar-seeking birds. Great as an accent, foundation planting or small hedge. Takes well to shearing. Requires a well-drained soil with regular watering, and thrives in a full to partial sun exposure.
