Philotheca myoporoides ‘Profusion’, formerly known as Eriostemon, is a compact evergreen Australian native shrub admired for its masses of star-shaped white flowers and aromatic deep green foliage. Flowering abundantly from late winter through spring, this elegant waxflower transforms the garden with a spectacular display while attracting bees and other beneficial pollinators.
With its naturally dense, rounded habit and year-round foliage, ‘Profusion’ is ideal for native gardens, mixed borders, cottage gardens, low hedges, and feature plantings. Hardy, drought-tolerant once established, and easy to maintain, it thrives in sunny to partly shaded positions with well-drained soil, making it an excellent choice for both residential and commercial landscapes.
