This native shrub, with its soft weeping new growth and prolific tassels of dainty flowers, makes a good garden shrub.
It should be planted in full sun or partial shade, and requires quite a lot of water if the plant is to avoid stress.
The only disadvantage is that the flowers take on a fairly unpleasant odour, especially in the evenings.
