Description

This dependable evergreen shrub grows up to 6' tall and 4' wide. White rose flowers appear intermittently but heavily from April through May. Wheat colored branches are lined with small, olive green, lobed leaves. This fast growing, specimen shrub does well in full sun and is cold and drought tolerant. It can be used for erosion control and wildlife cover. It is called Apache Plume because of its feathery seed heads. It is very attractive.
