x Halimiocistus wintonensis ‘Merrist Wood Cream’

Lovely, yet tough and drought resistant, x Halimiocistus is a cross between the genera Halimium and Cistus. This demure evergreen cultivar was raised at Merrist Wood Horticultural College in 1970.

Its low spreading form hosts soft yellow flowers embellished with wine-red spots at the base of each petal and narrow gray-green leaves. ‘Merrist Wood Cream’ is a favorite of ours en masse, as a rockery specimen, or blended with Nepeta, Lavender and Teucrium f. ‘Azureum’.

Blooms May–June.

Size: 3' high x 3' wide; hardy to zone 7.
