Common Name:
Purple Bidibidi
Description:
A native groundcover grown for its bright purple-red foliage.
Flower:
Insignificant flower spikes.
Size:
Approximately 75cm spread.
Growing Conditions:
Considered tough, thriving in exposed places with poor soil, Acaena’s only requirements are good drainage and planting in full sun to get the best foliage colour.
Care:
Very little care needed except for watering in dry spells.
Uses:
- Great groundcover for foliage colour.
- Great rockeries plant.
- Useful in containers or hanging baskets.
Comments:
As a groundcover, Acaena looks good in either a native themed garden with any of the grasses or flaxes or in combination with a range of flowering perennials.
