Acaena Microphylla 'Kupferteppich' - New Zealand Bur Ground Cover
Acaena microphylla 'Kupferteppich' is a vigorous, mat-forming evergreen perennial ground cover that forms dense, low-growing carpets ideal for rock gardens, pathways, and border planting. This New Zealand native features distinctive bronze-green foliage with 9-15 rounded leaflets that create an attractive copper-toned carpet effect throughout the year.
Key Features
This versatile ground cover reaches 10-25cm in height and spreads to create effective coverage in both sunny and partially shaded locations. The bronze-green foliage intensifies in color during cooler months, providing year-round visual interest. From June to September, spherical reddish-brown flowers appear, followed by bright red decorative burrs that persist into autumn, adding seasonal charm to your landscape.
Growing Conditions
Acaena microphylla 'Kupferteppich' thrives in well-drained soil and adapts to various conditions including chalk, loam, and sandy soils. This hardy perennial tolerates exposed positions and is frost-resistant, making it suitable for diverse garden environments. The plant performs well in full sun to partial shade and requires minimal maintenance once established.
Bulk Pack Benefits
This 48-plant bulk pack provides excellent value for larger landscaping projects. Plant 9-12 plants per square meter for optimal coverage. The 9cm pots contain healthy, nursery-grown specimens ready for immediate planting. Bulk quantities ensure faster ground coverage and a more cohesive appearance in your garden design.
Landscape Applications
Perfect for rock gardens, pathway edging, and filling gaps between stepping stones. This low-maintenance ground cover suppresses weeds naturally while attracting bees and pollinators. The bronze foliage creates beautiful contrast when planted alongside green-leaved perennials. Can tolerate occasional light foot traffic, making it suitable for informal pathway planting.
Please note: Plants are living products and may therefore differ from the photo and description. We grow in a natural way and only intervene when necessary, which can sometimes cause the plant to show minor imperfections. These often recover in your garden. We guarantee that our plants are vigorous and long lasting. They are supplied in recyclable growing pots and are shipped directly from our nursery.
