Plant of the Week 08/06/2021

Rockrose Cistus Purpureus Zone 6-9

Skinny, thyme green foliage provides a blanket of vegetation for paper-thin, wrinkled pink flowers that add a quirky but beautiful look to your yard. Plant in full sun and water occasionally once established.

A fast grower that can quickly reach 2' tall and 4' wide. Blooms in the summer. Can be evergreen in some climates. Easy to care for and tolerates poor soils. Looks best in rock gardens or near hardscaped areas.
