Rock Rose 'Jessamy Beauty'

Cistus 'Jessamy Beauty' is a vigorous and reliable rock rose, ideal for bringing a splash of cheerful colour to sunny, well-drained borders in UK gardens. This evergreen shrub produces an abundance of large, crinkled, pure white flowers, each with a prominent deep maroon blotch at the base of the petals, creating a stunning contrast. The blooms appear in late spring and early summer above its neat mound of dark green foliage. It thrives in full sun and well-drained soil, tolerating drought and coastal conditions once established. A fantastic choice for a Mediterranean or gravel garden, attracting pollinators.
