"Eriostemon myoporoides is one of the most shapely native plants we have, as you probably know and, being low-growing, is a most useful plant for covering the ground beneath taller shrubs and trees. For sheer abundance of bloom there surely could be no other native shrub more prolific; in spring it is literally smothered with its white star-shaped flowers." "Letters to Garden Lovers", Australian Home Beautiful, April 1938.
