  • Description

  • Notes

Rounded, grass-like shrub that grows quickly 1' x 2'. Dark gray-green leaves. Pale pink to white flowers appear in dense flattened clusters throught the spring. Adaptable to most soil conditions but prefers coarse well drained site in full sun. Suited well to small spaces. Seeds attract birds. Native to the southwestern deserts.
