Blooming prolifically during the cooler months when few other plants flower, it delivers months of delicate colour and exceptional bird-attracting power. Exceptionally hardy, low-maintenance and naturally compact, it thrives in challenging conditions including shade, dry periods and frost. Ideal for cottage gardens, shaded borders, containers and wildlife gardens, 'Ivory Chimes' brings soft winter colour and nectar-rich blooms to water-wise South Australian landscapes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"text-text-100 mt-2 -mb-1 text-base font-bold\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Features\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"[li_\u0026amp;]:mb-0 [li_\u0026amp;]:mt-1 [li_\u0026amp;]:gap-1 [\u0026amp;:not(:last-child)_ul]:pb-1 [\u0026amp;:not(:last-child)_ol]:pb-1 list-disc flex flex-col gap-1 pl-8 mb-3\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMature Size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.75–1.5 m H × 0.75–1.5 m W (compact, dense rounded habit)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrowth Rate:\u003c\/strong\u003e 20–30 cm per year under good conditions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFoliage:\u003c\/strong\u003e Small, oval dark green leaves;
