Leptinella squalida Platts Black is a vigorous and low-growing New Zealand native ground cover, celebrated for its fine, fern-like foliage in an attractive charcoal black hue.

This evergreen plant forms dense mats of striking, dark foliage making it an ideal choice for underplanting in containers, growing between rocks or as a ground cover in sun-dappled areas.

To maintain its vibrant colour and dense growth, it thrives best in full sun. Hardy and resilient, this fast-spreading ground cover provides year round interest and texture in the garden.
