A unique evergreen shrub, Mimetes cucullatus ‘Crackerjack Red’ produces marvellous bright green and red foliage year round. During summer white flowers appear between the foliage creating a lovely display. Use in mass plantings, general landscaping, native gardens, coastal gardens, rockeries, pots or as a low hedge. Mimetes cucullatus Crackerjack Red is excellent when used as a cut flower as its stems hold their colour for many weeks.
