Overview

The Pink Rice Flower, Ozothamnus diosmifolius, is an Australian native shrub renowned for its rounded, fluffy flower clusters. This hardy perennial, reaching up to 6 feet in height and 5 feet in spread, flaunts evergreen foliage and tiny, scented pink blooms predominantly in spring. Ideal for full sun, it adapts well to well-draining soils and is drought-tolerant once established, making it a low-maintenance choice for accent or mass planting.
