Coleonema compacta is a popular shrub due to its attractive, aromatic foliage, and star like flowers. The bright green foliage is soft and feathery, borne on slender stems, and releases a pleasant and light fragrance when brushed against. The foliage is adorned with masses of small, pink flowers from late winter through spring as it grows to 60 cm tall and 1 m wide. Coleonema compactum is a great plant for using as a groundcover, including in mixed plantings and borders, or planting near a walkway where its beauty and aromatic foliage can be appreciated.
