The Story
From our own desert plant-meister Tim Hanis, this Cistus introduction was collected in the Opuntia playground of SW Utah. This probable hybrid has closely held white and pale pink spines on compact pads, plants ranging to 12-18" in height and a couple feet in width looking actually rather furry from a distance; they're not! The flowers are quite large, upwards of 3 inches of ruffled, saturated purple-pink and produced freely in mid to late spring, occasionally later with some moisture. Easy to grow with bright light and full drainage. Zone 3.
