“The compact, low habit of this species makes it an excellent ground cover or foundation plant, especially when planted in a mass. It also serves well as a specimen shrub or as a border along shady driveways and walkways. Adapts well to difficult areas such as parking lots.” Florida’s Best Native Landscape Plants 200 Readily Available Species for Homeowners and Professionals, by Gil Nelson, 2003, University Press of Florida, Page 398
