Cistus: A Sun-Lover with Mediterranean Charm.

Cistus, often known as the rock rose, brings a touch of the Mediterranean to the British garden with its sun-loving nature and delicate, papery blooms. From late spring through to midsummer, Cistus produces masses of flowers that resemble crinkled tissue paper, usually in shades of pink, white, or purple, often with a bold splash of yellow at the centre. Each flower lasts only a day, but the plant blooms so prolifically that new flowers open daily, creating a continual display. With its compact form and evergreen foliage, Cistus is perfect for adding a splash of colour and charm to sunny borders or rock gardens.

Hardy and Drought-Tolerant.

One of the joys of Cistus is its hardiness and ability to thrive in hot, dry conditions. Once established, Cistus is wonderfully drought-tolerant, making it ideal for those parts of the garden that receive full sun and might otherwise be challenging to plant. It’s a relatively low-maintenance shrub, requiring little more than the occasional trim to keep it looking neat. In fact, Cistus prefers poor, well-drained soil and can thrive in coastal areas or gardens with sandy or stony ground. For gardeners seeking a hardy, Mediterranean feel without the fuss, Cistus is a fabulous choice.

A Friend to Pollinators and a Year-Round Feature.

Cistus isn’t just about good looks; it’s also a valuable plant for supporting pollinators. Its open, colourful flowers attract bees and other beneficial insects, making it a lovely addition to a wildlife-friendly garden. And because it’s evergreen, Cistus provides structure and texture throughout the winter, keeping the garden lively and full of interest even when other plants have faded. With its beauty, resilience, and year-round appeal, Cistus is a wonderful way to bring warmth and wildlife into the garden, capturing a slice of the Mediterranean right at home.
