An Australian native, Dwarf Mat Rush is forms soft airy clumps of long evergreen leaves. Requiring little to no maintenance, it is tough and adaptable to a variety of conditions including sun, moderate shade, drought and clay soil. Beautiful when allowed to cascade over a planter, in summer it forms bloom stalks with sweetly scented yellow flowers. Excellent in dry borders and tolerant of salt spray and coastal conditions. Dwarf Mat Rush is a great ground cover and an attractive replacement for lawns. Propagates by seed and rhizome divisions, but does not spread invasively within the landscape.
