Fast-growing fine-textured evergreen shrub to 6-8’ tall and wide. Interesting rosemary-like olive-green leaves with white undersides are accented with dainty light-lavender colored flowers that appear on the branch tips primarily in late-winter into spring and throughout the year in warmer climates. This popular variety is revered for its more upright growth habit and tolerance to coastal wind and sea spray conditions. Though this relatively pest and disease free shrub is drought tolerant it performs best with a more regular watering schedule during spring and summer better retaining its color and density. Great left to develop its natural shape in large beds and borders it also takes well to shearing as a hedge or to produce a more formal appearance. Prefers a well-drained soil. Full sun to partial shade.
