Westringia fruticosa, also known as Coastal Rosemary, Australian Rosemary or Coastal Westringia, is a native shrub that grows near the coast in eastern Australia. It has narrow, dark green leaves that are densely arranged in whorls around the stems, creating a neat and tidy appearance. The flowers are small, white and hairy, with purple spots on the lower lip. They bloom throughout the year, attracting bees and butterflies to the garden. Westringia fruticosa can grow up to 2 m tall and 4 m wide, but can be easily pruned and shaped to suit any size or style. It is ideal for hedges, screens, borders, rockeries, coastal gardens and containers. It can tolerate drought, frost, salt and wind, making it a very adaptable and low-maintenance plant.

AMAZING PLANTS AND EVEN BETTER SERVICE

The plants I received were so well packed for transport and just completely healthy with lovely thick stems and perfect foliage. I 100% recommend buying from The Australian Plant Shop as they will make sure you get a plant that is value for money.

Ginkgo biloba

A very good quality Ginkgo biloba was delivered within four days of my placing the order. It is well-priced and a more substantial plant than I had anticipated. A bonus was that the Nursery member of staff who delivered the Ginkgo was delightful and courteous.

Healthy plants and quick delivery.

I ordered 22 Escallonia plants shortly before Christmas for a new informal hedge. The plants arrived quickly and are all very healthy and of a similar height. I’m extremely happy with both the plants and service provided!

The Australian Plant Shop

I bought 4 plants for my son and am very happy with the service and the quality of the plants provided. I am an older person and wasn't comfortable with the online site for ordering so was able to speak with a person who was very helpful and happy to help me with my order. This is a great business for plant lovers.

Great Customer Service Despite Some Delays

Although there were some hiccups during the process, including stock issues and a 20-day wait, it’s clear from the quality of the plants I received that the store is genuinely committed to customer satisfaction. I appreciate their effort and will likely shop here again and recommend them to friends.

Super scented and really healthy

I went to some mid-size and tiny ones at the beginning of spring. All of them looked radiant and well taken care of, with some buds already blossoming and releasing a powerful scent. I will buy it again!

I got a bit of issue with the order due to incorrect postcode input, contacted the shop and got fixed, the plants got delivered with no further issue. Hopefully they will thrive and give me a beautiful and fragrant garden soon! Will continue support your business!
