Flat Pot Ø 50 cm

Ideal for hedges, borders and green roofs

The Leucophyllum frutescens, also known as "Texas Sage" or "Cenizo", is an evergreen shrub native to the arid regions of Mexico and the southern United States. Renowned for its silvery foliage and spectacular blooms in shades of purple and lilac, this plant is a symbol of resilience and beauty in xeriscapes. With its ability to tolerate extreme drought and poor soils, Leucophyllum frutescens is the ideal choice for Mediterranean gardens, rock gardens, and low-maintenance green spaces.

  • Habit and height: compact and branched shrub, 1–1.5 metres tall.
  • Foliage: evergreen, silvery, fine and velvety.
  • Flowering: during the warm season, especially after rain, purple, lilac or lavender flowers.
  • Hardiness: tolerates prolonged drought, poor, sandy or rocky soils and salt-laden winds.
  • Ideal for: Mediterranean and rock gardens, xeriscaping, informal hedges or as a focal point.
  • Soil: well-drained, alkaline or sandy.
  • Exposure: full sun, for abundant flowering.
  • Watering: moderate in the first few months, then very little water.
  • Pruning: light once a year, preferably at the end of winter.

It pairs with Santolina chamaecyparissus and Helichrysum italicum for foliage, with Cistus creticus and Gaura lindheimeri for flowers, and with grasses such as Stipa tenuissima and Pennisetum setaceum rubrum.

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.
