Flowering occurs in late spring through to mid summer. The leaves are elliptical in shape and about 20mm long. Although native to a dry summer climate M.nesophila has been grown successfully in the wetter summer conditions of Australia's east coast in well drained, sunny positions. The species responds to annual fertilising after flowering and to an annual light pruning to encourage a bushy shape. Under ideal conditions the species is quick growing and makes a good screening plant.
Propagation is easy from both seed and cuttings.
