Acaena inermis 'Purpurea'
Acaena inermis 'Purpurea' is a low-growing, mat-forming evergreen perennial valued for its finely divided bronze-purple foliage. The creeping stems gradually create a colourful carpet that brings texture and contrast to alpine beds, gravel gardens and border edges.
Small white pincushion-like flowers appear in summer, followed by distinctive reddish-brown burr-like fruits. The ornamental seed heads add further interest above the richly coloured foliage.
Tough and easy to grow in well-drained soil, this spreading variety is useful for groundcover, banks, rockeries and containers. It performs well in full sun or partial shade and needs little maintenance once established.
