Cistus ‘Lusitanicus’

Description

Cistus  ‘Lusitanicus’ commonly known as the Crimson-Spot Rockrose, is a compact, evergreen shrub with dark green, aromatic leaves. In late spring to early summer, it produces showy, white, papery flowers with crimson blotches at the base of each petal, creating a striking contrast. This drought-tolerant Mediterranean native thrives in full sun and well-drained soils, making it an excellent choice for xeriscaping, coastal gardens, or rocky landscapes. Low-maintenance and resilient, it is perfect for adding a splash of color to sunny spots while attracting pollinators.
