Description
Fern like foliage of green to brown with button green flowers.
This is a great ground cover plant with its soft feathered foliage that creeps constantly in moist free draining soils. other more stable plants will continue to grow through this mat of foliage due to roots only going down to 5-10cm. Our best use of this plant is for the base of shrubs in containers or ground.

A small, but solid mat of a plant. very delicate fronds, entirely green, unlike the product pictures. Also, significantly larger than Platts Black with leaves being around 3-4cm long and about 1.5cm wide. I think a little more description on all the Leptinella squalida pages would be beneficial for customers
