Cistus Pink Ice

Cistus Pink Ice Details

Cistus Pink Ice, commonly known as Pink Rock Rose, is grown for its pretty flowers which have a paper like appearance. It bears masses of pink flowers with darker spots, and while the flowers dont last long, they are produced en masse from spring through summer above the grey-green foliage. It typically grows to 1.5 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. This Pink Rock Rose 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.
