Cistus Silver Pink Rock Rose 180MM
Cistus ‘Silver Pink Rock Rose’ – 180MM
I am Silver Pink Rock Rose. My family originated from the Mediterranean region
I am a compact, mounded-forming, evergreen shrub with lance-shaped, silvery green leaves. I bloom spring and summer with masses of delicate pale pink flowers which fade to white near my yellow centre.
My petals are crinkled with the appearance of crepe paper. Hardy I cope with extremes of temperature and am drought tolerant making me a good choice for exposed locations. Plant a row of me to form a low screening hedge. I perform well container planted to brighten up a courtyard or paved area. |
Full Sun to Part Shade (4+ hours of direct sun) | |
Height: 0.9m Width: 0.8m | |
I tolerate dryness and require minimal water once established | |
Borders & Groundcover | |
I perform well in most soils but do best in those that are free draining |
I am popular and will make you happy because… |
I produce masses of multi-tone pink blooms with crepe paper like petals in spring and summer | |
Hardy I am ideal for coastal planting, exposed locations and very tolerant of dry conditions | |
My silver foliage is soft to touch and naturally develops into a compact rounded form |
- Plant me:
- in pots and other containers
- in garden beds and general landscaping
- to be cut flowers to be enjoyed indoors
- as a screening hedge
- in coastal conditions
Tips for success… |
I benefit from an annual prune to shape after flowering | |
Plant me 50cm apart | |
