aka Rock Rose

Rock Rose. A lovely little shrub for a sunny border or bank. The grey-green foliage is aromatic and has open faced blooms of pure white, with a crimson blotch and yellow centre making a very showy display in late spring. Prefers well drained soil, can tolerate drought once established. Evergreen.

Cistus should be trimmed lightly after flowering. They prefer a light soil and don't need a lot of feeding.
