Cistus x argenteus 'Silver Pink', or a Rock Rose Silver Pink, is a small, compact, rounded, free-flowering, evergreen shrub with lance-shaped, silvery-green leaves. Its lovely, tender, papery, pink flowers with gold stamens fade to white in the centre. In summer, the plant is covered with masses of flowers but each flower lasts only a day. Rock Rose Silver Pink is easy to care for and low maintenance. It can grow in poor to moderately fertile soil, but prefers well-drained soils and sunny, sheltered locations. It’s a Mediterranean plant so it prefers mild climates. It can be killed by cold winters. It is heat and salt resistant, therefore, suitable for coastal areas. Generally, pest-free and disease-free. Cistus x argenteus 'Silver Pink' is a lovely, little shrub with beautiful flowers, perfect for small, informal, urban, and cottage gardens. Great for banks and slopes, as a ground cover, or for growing in containers.

About Us

During this time, we have developed a large stock of trees, mature evergreen shrubs, conifers, Japanese maples, cedars and olives. What sets us apart from a generic garden center is solid unwavering focus on trees and some bigger shrubs. You will find thousands of trees, hundreds of varieties and lots of experts who are working on the nursery and more than willing to help you to choose a plant for you.

What you will not find is hot tubs, garden furniture and plastic garden gnomes. In a nutshell, trees is what we know and trees is what we do, and only trees (and some shrubs to go with the trees).
