Crowea exalata
These small shrubs are native to Australia, related to the Boronias. Masses of pink flowers through the summer and in to autumn.
Spreads outwards more than upwards and grows to about 1 m across by 70 cm high.
(On a side note - I am intrigued by the ant seen on one of the petals. It has such a curious shaped body!).
