Commonly known as Rockroses, Cistus are hardy, low-maintenance plants prized for their striking flowers, which come in a variety of colours, including white, pink, purple, and red. With a wonderful ability to thrive in dry, rocky soils, Cistus plants are ideal for creating colourful, drought-tolerant garden displays with minimal effort. Well-suited for sunny, well-draining areas Cistus plants are highly resistant to heat and drought once established. They often have evergreen foliage, which adds year-round interest to your garden, and they bloom profusely in late spring to early summer. Cistus thrive in full sun and are well-suited for coastal, rocky, or sandy landscapes, where conditions may be too harsh for other plants which may struggle. Their evergreen foliage, consisting of aromatic, leathery leaves, provides year-round interest, even when not in bloom. Ideal for low-maintenance gardens, the Cistus plant mix provides long-lasting colour and visual appeal with minimal care.
