FFF36 - A HAPPY WANDERER

The Native Sarsaparilla Hardenbergia violacea (var. 'Happy Wanderer') is a useful climbing and creeping plant useful as a ground cover that grows prolifically in the Southern Australian Region. This vigorous, popular and generally hardy Australian native plant grows to about 1 metre high by 1 metre wide. The pea shape flowers appear in late winter and early spring and are violet in colour. It can be used as a ground cover and will climb on a support. It prefers an open sunny position. Pink and white flowering cultivars are also available.

    I love this color and it's so vivid in your photo. Is it not invasive like other legumes?

    It is such a beautiful native. I've never seen it growing up here though. Probably far too tropical for this beauty.

    While I imagine this flower is beautiful in either white or pink I love this rich purple shade. Great photo!
    Have a wonderful weekend.
