Cotton Lavender Santolina rosmarinifolia 'Lemon Fizz'

Santolina 'Lemon Fizz' is a compact evergreen shrub which forms a neat mound of golden-yellow, finely dissected, needle-like leaves highlighted with bright lemon button-like flowers in summer.

Manly grown for its dazzling leaves, 'Lemon Fizz' is an ideal gap-filler for a summer border and is guaranteed to brighten any dull spot in the garden and will jazz up any rock garden, container or small bed.

Native of Mediterranean climates, Santolina is drought-tolerant when established so is perfect for gravel gardens and looks stunning in a pot on the patio or balcony - in fact it can be treated much the same as the more familiar lavender.

Fully deserving its coveted RHS Award of Garden Merit, you can be sure that this is a proven garden performer, guaranteed to be suitable for UK gardeners at every level of experience. You can therefore plant this in the garden with confidence, for stunning displays for many years to come.

Supplied as 3 plants in 9cm pots, ready for planting out, grow in any light well-drained soil in a sunny position and you'll be rewarded with clumps of striking foliage with a chamomile-like scent.
