Flat Pot Ø 50 cm

Ideal for hedges, borders and green roofs

Cistus salviifolius (sometimes also referred to as Cistus salvifolius and commonly known as female cistus) is an evergreen shrub typical of Mediterranean flora.

It grows into a dense, rounded, and highly branched shrub. In spring, it is covered with delicate ivory-white flowers with a heart of yellow stamens. The leaves are small and rough, with a glaucous green color.

  • Habit and height: compact, low and spreading shrub, 50-80 cm tall.
  • Foliage: evergreen, wrinkled and velvety leaves similar to sage.
  • Flowering: from April to June, white flowers with a bright yellow center.
  • Hardiness: tolerates cold down to -10°C, poor and calcareous soils, drought and salt spray.
  • Ideal for: ground cover, natural borders, rock and coastal gardens, green roofs.
  • Soil: well-drained, preferably sandy or alkaline; poor soil is also fine.
  • Exposure: full sun.
  • Watering: regular in the first few months, then very little water.
  • Pruning: frequent pruning is not necessary: simply remove faded flowers or damaged branches.

From April to June it is covered with simple flowers ivory white with a heart of yellow stamens, in contrast with the foliage.

Prefers full sun and well-drained soils, even poor, sandy, or calcareous ones. It is resistant to cold (down to -10°C), drought, and salt spray; it requires very little water and pruning, making it ideal for low-maintenance gardens.

It pairs well with Mediterranean plants such as Lavandula angustifolia and Rosmarinus prostratus; for a color contrast, with Santolina chamaecyparissus or Phlomis fruticosa.

FLAT POT SIZE Ø 50 CM

Instant effect: a finished garden from day one

Flatpots are well-established plants, grown in our nursery in a shallow, wide pot measuring Ø 50 cm. They arrive with a full crown and a wide root ball, with roots that spread outwards instead of circling.

The result is an instant impact: as soon as they are planted, hedges, borders and flowerbeds already have the appearance of a mature garden. You don't have to wait years for the plants to grow and, thanks to the wide and shallow root ball, they establish quickly: they are also ideal for green roofs and shallow soils.

They are the right choice for designers, landscapers and companies that need to deliver a finished project, and for anyone who wants to transform their garden in a single season.
