Prostanthera Purple Haze is a small evergreen shrub with a dense growth habit and a spectacular display of purple flowers during late winter and early spring. The aromatic foliage of this Australian native gives it the common name of Mint Bush because of the refreshing fragrance when it is crushed. Ideal for rockeries, pathways and tubs on the patio. Use a slow-release low phosphorus fertiliser to help establish the plant. Mulching around the base of the plant will help retain moisture and suppress weeds.
