This evergreen shrub has a mounding habit, with flexible branches of silver-grey foliage. Its long bloom period goes from fall to early spring, and the nectar-rich purple flowers attract bees. It thrives in full sun and reflected heat, but needs good drainage. A hard prune in late spring will encourage dense growth.
