This beautiful drought-tolerant shrub is grown as much for its handsome foliage as for its flowers, pretty though they are. In our Heronswood garden, it has made a 3m x 2m upright shrub. The new leaves are like white felt, which turn grey as they age. The 50cm long panicles of pink flowers. Prune to 1.2 metres after flowering.A tough survivor, even in less ideal conditions, and an excellent choice for coastal gardens or exposed gardens.
