Description
A spreading rhizomatous tufted perennial, Acanthocarpus preissii will generally grow no higher than 0.5 metres, but can spread to cover a large area. Growing mainly on coastal limestone and dunes, it is an important sand stabiliser. White flowers in the autumnal months are followed by beige seed capsules which begin to split in December to reveal the distinctive hard orange and round seeds.
