Pimelea acra

Pimelea acra is characterized by its robust, low-lying shrub form, which allows it to thrive in its often harsh, wind-swept native habitats. Its small, glossy green leaves and clusters of delicate white to pale pink flowers exhibit a hardy elegance. The flowers, which bloom in spring and summer, are a stark contrast against often stony, sparse soils, a testament to pimelea acra's resilience and adaptive capabilities.
