A new easy-to-grow hybrid, the White Rock Rose (Cistus x hybridus) shines in the hottest of landscapes and makes growing in arid, xeric sites look easy! A unique flowering broadleaved evergreen, White Rock Rose blooms all summer on a low spreading mounding form!
Pollinators flock to the summer display of gleaming white flowers, born singly or in groups of 3, each with cheerful yellow centers that are loaded with pollen and nectar! The wavy gray-green leaves are densely held over low mounds of evergreen greenery, and won't fade in the heat and humidity of the hot southern summers.
Rock Roses are drought tolerant once established and handle full sun all day! Previously known as C. corbariensis, this hybrid Rock Rose thrives throughout USDA growing zones 7 to 10, growing to an impressive 2 to 5 feet in height and spreading 5-6 feet in width.
Planting and Application:
White Rock Roses can handle xeric conditions once established, so Rock Gardens, hell strips along the road or sidewalk, or on hot, sunny hillsides where some erosion and sunbaked conditions are common. Commercial sites and relentless areas around parking lots and sun-drenched sites are loved by Rock Rose!
Great for use as a low-growing garden filler and living groundcover, happily winding through the landscape to fill bare ground among larger shrubs and around trees as a pretty flowering skirt. Plant anywhere a sunny year-round shock of color and winter interest garden features is needed!
- Pure White 5-Petalled Blooms With Yellow Centers
- Pollinator-Friendly Blooms!
- Wavy Gray-Green Broadleaf Evergreen Foliage
- Low-Growing, Wide-Spreading Mound
- Living Groundcover, Erosion Control, En Masse & Erosion on Slopes
#ProPlantTips for Care:
Rock Roses need full sun, and are hardy, and highly adaptable to a wide range of well-drained soil with regular moisture access for young broadleaf evergreen shrubby perennials. Avoid poor soils that retain lots of water to avoid drowning your shrub, because these plants become quite drought-tolerant once established.
Little pruning is needed, but if you do choose to trim your Rock Rose, do so only after it's done flowering. Provide a 3-4 inch thick layer of mulch over the soil surface to help with insulating the roots and provide moisture retention.
- Full Sun & Some Partial Shade
- Must Have Well-Draining Soil
- Moderate to Low Moisture Once Established
- Prune After Flowering Only
- Tolerant of Salt, Droughts, Pests, Diseases & Heat
Brilliant white blooms on gray-green foliage, the broadleaf evergreen White Rock Rose is a hardy and resilient flowering groundcover! Order now at Nature Hills!
