Helianthemum The BrideRock Rose, Sun Rose, Helianthemum 'Snow Queen'

From late spring to midsummer, Helianthemum ‘The Bride’ dazzles with frothing mounds of snowy white flowers with yellow centres above low cushions of silvery grey leaves.

Rock Roses are low and spreading evergreen shrubs which thrive in challenging dry situations. They form neat humps of small, greyish-green, linear foliage which will spill over rockeries, steps or border edges providing cover and interest throughout the year. If clipped and shaped after flowering, they will keep their lovely hummocky shape and you may even be rewarded with a second flush of flowers later in the summer. 

The nectar-rich flowers are a magnet for pollinating insects. Trouble free and easy to grow, this variety is perfect for planting at the front of hot, dry borders and rockeries, and makes a useful addition to coastal gardens. It combines beautifully with other Mediterranean plants such as Cistus and Lavender.
