Cistus incanus tauricus | Tauric Rock Rose

$0.00

DESCRIPTION
Cistus incanus tauricus is a low-growing, evergreen shrub celebrated for its delicate, crinkled pink flowers. Blooming in late spring to early summer, the blossoms feature a yellow center and a papery texture that adds charm to Mediterranean-style gardens. The gray-green, slightly fuzzy foliage complements the bright flowers and remains attractive year-round.

This plant is native to the rocky, dry regions of the Mediterranean, where it has adapted to challenging growing conditions. Its ability to thrive in poor soils and hot climates has made it a popular choice for xeriscaping and drought-tolerant landscaping. In addition to its beauty, it provides nectar for pollinators, adding ecological value to the garden.
