Mundi Coast Rosemary
Westringia fruticosa 'NFL25'
Summary
Mundi is a groundcover version of coast rosemary that got off to a slow start in our trial but filled out for generally good appearance by May. For the rest of the season it continued to improve to and became quite a good-looking foliage plant that would be useful in the front of a border or anywhere a low green covering was needed. People at the open houses universally loved this plant. It was admired for the clean foliage, nice dense form, and versatility in landscape design. “Lovely texture,” “exciting groundcover option,” “fantastic foliage, “neat and cute” and “would buy” were among the praises for this tidy version of Westringia fruticosa. Foliage was unbothered by pests or disease and maintained a healthy, dark green appearance that staff consistently rated high. There were no significant differences between treatments for any categories (Table 20a). Although plants on the Low treatment had a slower relative growth rate than the other two treatments, this difference was not statistically significant, and we recommend irrigation at the WUCOLS Low category level.
