Cistus incanus Details

Cistus incanus, commonly known as the Pink Rock Rose, is grown for its pretty flowers which have a paper like appearance. It bears masses of bright pink flowers from spring through summer above the grey-green foliage. It typically grows to 1 m tall and the same wide, and can be trimmed as necessary. Best results are achieved when it is grown in full sun on a well-drained, sheltered site, though it is tolerant of coastal conditions, moderate frost, and extended dry periods. Cistus incanus is commonly used to add interest and texture to the garden. It is great for including in a mixed planting, planting as a backdrop for smaller plants, growing around outdoor living areas such as pools and the like, including in cottage gardens, or for using in the drier parts of the garden.
