It's quite a common evergreen shrub over here Pansypotter - reaches around 3 metres in height and has these fabulous bracts and tiny yellow flowers mostly during summer and autumn.

I didnt realise they were bracts such a lovely colour and evergreen too a lovely shrub ;0)

Yep - these are the pink bracts ... the tiny little yellow flowers haven't started to pop out yet.

Yes it's one of my favourites Louise - really pretty when it's in full bloom ... few more weeks before that happens though.

It's such a stunning plants! I know if

brown from our water and fall off and die.
