Mapoon Bush produces white or off-white flowers throughout the year. In regions with warm winter, it can flower all year round. However, it blooms mostly in spring and summer.

Mapoon Bush can be used as a hedge or an accent plant in a garden landscape. This plant is a wonderful addition to any garden, as it brings a hint of nature with its beauty and ornamental foliage.
