Carpenteria californica 'Elizabeth' - Bush Anemone

Description

This selection of one of our most beautiful native shrubs was made by Wayne Roderick. Differs from the species in that its flowers open all at once rather than gradually. Fragrant clusters of broad white anemone like flowers appear in late spring and early summer. While it is evergreen, plants go through a yellow period in midsummer, and green back up with the change in season.
