Plant Description

Santolina chamaecyparissus, commonly known as Lavender Cotton, is a compact evergreen shrub admired for its finely textured, aromatic foliage. Growing to a height of 6-15 cm, this plant features silvery-gray, feathery leaves that provide a soft, woolly appearance. In summer, it produces bright yellow, button-like flowers on short stalks, contrasting beautifully with the foliage. Lavender Cotton is highly valued for its drought tolerance, making it a perfect choice for rock gardens, borders, and xeriscaping. Its unique scent and texture add a delightful sensory element to any garden.
