Carpet Star Zieria (Zieria prostrata 'Carpet Star')

Carpet Star lays down a dense, glossy green mat and then sprinkles it with hundreds of tiny starry white-pink flowers through spring. A rare headland native from the NSW coast that behaves impeccably in gardens - no thorns, no mess, no fuss.

🌱 Why Gardeners Love Carpet Star Zieria

✔ Dense living carpet - hugs the ground at 20-30cm high, spreading to a metre across.

✔ Massed star flowers - dainty four-petalled blooms cover the mat in spring.

✔ Aromatic foliage - leaves release a fresh citrusy scent when brushed.

✔ Coastal tough - bred by the sea, it laughs at salt wind and sandy soil.

✔ Conservation story - growing this rare species in gardens helps secure its future.

🏡 How to Use Carpet Star Zieria in Your Garden

✅ Weed-smothering ground cover - closes over bare soil in a season or two.

✅ Spilling over walls - drapes softly over retaining walls and rockery edges.

✅ Native verges - a tidy, low water council-strip solution - the 140mm pack of ten covers serious ground.

Easy Planting & Care Guide

  • Position: Full sun to light shade with decent drainage; superb in coastal gardens.
  • Spacing: 60-80cm apart for closed cover within two seasons.
  • Best Planting Time: Autumn or spring.
  • Watering & Care: Weekly water while establishing, then occasional deep drinks in drought. A light all-over trim after flowering keeps the mat dense.

❔ FAQs About Carpet Star Zieria

Is it really rare?
Yes - wild Zieria prostrata survives on just a few coastal headlands near Coffs Harbour. Cultivated plants like these are nursery-propagated, never wild-collected.

Will it handle frost?
Light frost is fine once established. In colder inland gardens give it a warm, sheltered aspect.

How do I keep it dense?
Tip-prune lightly after the spring flush. Avoid heavy feeding - a little native fertiliser in spring is plenty.
