Baeckea gunniana Cultivation | Propagation | General Uses Cultivation Notes: Requires a position in full sun in a fertile moisture retentive well-drained soil[200]. This species is not very hardy in Britain, though it should survive outdoors in the very mildest areas of the country, especially if given a sheltered position. Plants in Australian gardens tolerate temperatures down to at least -7°c[157], but this cannot be translated directly to British gardens due to our cooler summers and longer, colder and wetter winters. The leaves emit a powerful camphor-like scent when handled[245]. This species is very closely related to and perhaps synonymous with B. utilis[157]. A rock garden plant[157], it seems to maintain its prostrate habit even when grown at lower altitudes[157]. For further Baeckea gunniana gardening information |
