Gomphostigma virgata is a graceful, fast-growing shrub with slender, silvery-green foliage and delicate white star-shaped flowers that bloom throughout summer. Naturally found along riverbanks and wetlands, it thrives in moist soils but is also drought-tolerant once established. Its airy, flowing form makes it a fantastic choice for softening pond edges, creating movement in the landscape, and attracting pollinators like bees and butterflies. Low-maintenance and resilient, it adds elegance and texture to any water-wise garden.
