Flat Pot Ø 50 cm

Ideal for hedges, borders and green roofs

The Phylica ericoides, also known as "silk grass", is an evergreen shrub native to South Africa, prized for its delicate habit and velvety foliage. This ornamental plant is perfect for Mediterranean, rocky or coastal gardens, thanks to its resistance to difficult conditions and its ability to add elegance and lightness to any green space. With its ethereal appearance, Phylica ericoides is an ideal choice for those who desire a refined and low-maintenance garden.

  • Habit and height: compact, dense, slow-growing shrub, 50–70 cm tall, with a rounded crown.
  • Foliage: evergreen, with small, needle-like, velvety leaves, bright green with silvery highlights.
  • Flowering: in spring and summer, with small cream-white flowers.
  • Hardiness: highly tolerant of drought and salt spray, thrives in poor, sandy or rocky soils.
  • Ideal for: Mediterranean, rocky and coastal gardens, small spaces, containers and green roofs.
  • Soil: well-drained and sandy; it adapts to poor soils.
  • Exposure: full sun.
  • Watering: moderate during the first few months, then very little water.
  • Pruning: minimal, at the end of winter, to maintain a compact shape.

It pairs with the silvery foliage of Helichrysum italicum and Santolina chamaecyparissus, the movement of Stipa tenuissima and the blooms of Gaura lindheimeri and Lavandula angustifolia.

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.
