Scaevola aemula is a spreading, prostrate, Australian native shrub that forms a dense mat-like cover of deep green foliage. Lovely fan-shaped mauve-blue (occasionally white) flowers are produced throughout the year, however the main flush is usually from spring to summer. This is a very hardy groundcover that will also attract nectar feeding birds.
