Brachyglottis 'Drysdale'

Scallop-edged leaves with white undersides and a covering of silvery fur lend a tactile appearance to this evergreen shrub. Brachyglottis 'Drysdale,' a close relative of Ragwort, bears yellow, daisy-like flowers all summer. This compact little shrub is well suited to coastal conditions and makes an attractive addition to sunny Mediterranean-style planting schemes; a pleasing, drought-tolerant plant for sunny borders. Although hardy, it prefers some protection from the elements during particularly cold weather. Height and spread: 60cm (24)
