Ready to plant

Fabiana imbricata is an evergreen shrub native to the area between Chile and Argentina (where this plant is commonly called Pichi or Pichi pichi).

It is an ornamental plant that is easy to grow in the milder areas of our country, whether planted in the ground or in a deep pot.

Features

The leaves are small and needle-like, making it very easy to mistake this plant for heather or rosemary. The epithet of this plant derives from the arrangement of the leaves, which are indeed imbricate (that is, arranged one above the other in a way that resembles the tiles of a roof). The color of the foliage varies as the plant ages: from the light green of the young plant to a darker green as the plant reaches maturity.

The flowering is extremely abundant and very graceful, arranged along the entire length of the branches. The inflorescences are composed of a tubular crown of a bright pure white color, with delicately edged borders. Although Fabiana imbricata is capable of growing even in partially shaded areas, exposure to full sun will guarantee a much more abundant flowering.

Fabiana imbricata is capable of forming a very robust and deep root system, but it will still need some watering during periods of prolonged drought. Its resistance to salt winds makes it perfect for creating evergreen hedges in a coastal garden, but it is also excellent for cultivation on a slope or in the context of a low-maintenance garden.

Between May and July, it produces an extremely abundant bloom along all the branches: small tubular flowers of a bright pure whitewith delicately edged borders.

Easy to grow, it prefers full sun, which ensures more abundant flowering, and requires some watering during prolonged drought. Its resistance to salty winds makes it perfect for hedges in coastal gardens.

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.
