This makes a beautiful contrast with the rosy pink flowers that appear April to July. Pinch for denser form. Drought tolerant. Prefers well- drained soils and tolerates heat. Native to the chaparral of San Mateo, Santa Clara and Santa Cruz counties. This is a fine plant for the dry summer garden. Good wildlife value.
