Prostanthera rhombea Pink is a small evergreen shrub with a dense growth habit and a spectacular display of musk-pink flowers during late winter and early spring. The aromatic foliage of this Australian native gives it the common name of Mint Bush because of the refreshing fragrance when it is crushed. Pretty in both native and cottage gardens and suitable for containers, rockeries, and pathways. Use a slow-release low phosphorus fertiliser to help establish the plant. Mulching around the base of the plant will help retain moisture and suppress weeds.

Soil: Well-drained soil.
Conditions: Full sun to part shade. Drought, frost and coastal hardy.
Size: Height 1-2m x width 0.50-1m
