Teucrium fruticans, also known as female vervain or teucrium, is an ornamental shrub typical of Mediterranean flora.

With an upright and very dense habit that makes it ideal for pruning according to the principles of topiary art, the teucrium plant features silvery foliage with a pleasant aroma. Thriving in full sun and well-drained soils, this evergreen shrub will delight you with its rapid growth and abundant, long-lasting blue-purple flowers.

Camedrio femmina is the most common and widely used species of Teucrium, ideal for creating both screening hedges and large, standalone bushes. It is a perfect plant for a coastal garden due to its resistance to salt-laden winds.

As for suitable plant combinations for Teucrium fruticans, you can pair it with other Mediterranean plants to create a natural, informal look: Rosmarinus officinalis, Lavandula angustifolia, Myrtus communis and Pyracantha (Pyracantha 'Navaho' or Pyracantha coccinea).

Abundant and long-lasting blue-violet flowering from February to June.

WHAT MAKES OUR PLANTS DIFFERENT

Long anti-spiraling vases

A traditional lawn is a fragile monoculture: it drinks thousands of liters of water every summer, needs mowing every week, and turns yellow as soon as you neglect it. An alternative lawn turns this logic on its head: instead of grasses, we use Mediterranean groundcovers selected in our nursery—low, dense, and hardy plants, born for hot and dry climates.

The result is a green, walkable carpet that blooms for months, withstands drought, salt spray, and frost, and reduces watering and maintenance by 80%. It is not an aesthetic compromise: it is a more beautiful, more vibrant lawn that is more honest with the environment.
