This exceptional evergreen shrub is a winner of the prestigious Award of Garden Merit of the Royal Horticultural Society.
Cistus pulverulentus generally blooms in late spring through summer, and grows to about 2' tall x 3' wide. It is drought and salt tolerant once established, but you will want to plant it well-draining soil. This cistus is deer resistant and hardy to 10°F when protected from wind chill.
