Sunset Rock Rose

An excellent large scale ground cover rock rose that makes a beautiful, weed-suppressing evergreen mound. Growing only 2-3 feet tall by about 6-8 feet wide, this is a great option for a sturdy mound in the Mediterranean garden. Incredibly easy to take care of, the Sunset rock rose inhibits the growth of weeds with its leaf drop and dense canopy and is very drought tolerant once established. Deep magenta flowers cover the plant in late spring.
