The foliage is dark green, finely divided and held quite erect. This is a very ornamental species which occurs in sandy and rocky areas in quite specific soil types. It has proven difficult to maintain in cultivation. It appears to resent humid conditions and poor drainage but is very hardy when established in suitable conditions. Some success has been achieved in unsuitable growing areas through grafting.
Cuttings are also successful using firm, current season's growth.
