Westringia Hybrid ‘WES08’ (Aussie Box Westringia) is a compact, dense-growing native shrub ideal for creating neat low hedges, borders, containers, and mass plantings. With its naturally tidy shape, rich green foliage, and attractive mauve flowers through spring and summer, it brings year-round structure and soft seasonal colour to garden spaces.
Aussie Box Westringia is a practical alternative to traditional box hedging, offering faster establishment, lower water needs, and reduced pruning requirements compared with many exotic hedge plants. Its hardy nature makes it a reliable choice for low-maintenance landscapes, providing a clean, formal look while still supporting an Australian native garden style.
