Description

A compact groundcover with deep burgundy foliage that holds its colour year-round. Spreads to form a dense, low mat — great for mass planting, borders, edging, or containers.

Grows in full sun to part shade with well-drained soil. Handles drought well once settled in. Water deeply once a week, more in hot dry spells. A light feed of slow-release fertiliser in spring keeps it looking its best. Very low maintenance — minimal trimming needed.

Botanical name: Alternanthera dentata ‘Little Ruby’
