Key Features

• Reaches up to 60 cm in height and spreads to about 1 metre.
• Has small, fragrant, whitish-grey leaves.
• Produces bright yellow flowers from spring through autumn; the small flowers grow in clusters.
• Grows in sunny spots and can also grow in partial shade.
• Needs less water in winter. Weekly watering in summer helps it look more vibrant and produce more flowers.
• May be damaged by frost in very cold conditions; cutting it back to the base can help it regrow in spring.

Santolina grows and spreads quickly. Pruning can help older plants renew when they become sparse or look less vigorous.
