Abstract

A new and distinctive Microbiota decussata plant is provided. Unlike common plants of the species, the new plant displays attractive foliage that is bluer in coloration particularly at the juvenile stage and during the winter months. The growth habit is prostrate, and more creeping than that of the ‘Condavis’ cultivar (U.S. Plant patent application Ser. No. 12/071,395, filed Feb. 20, 2008). The new plant is well suited for growing as a specimen plant or in a group as a ground cover.
