Ornamental shrub excellent in groups and for hedges. Beautiful flowering to decorate gardens, borders, slopes and terrace. It has medicinal properties such as analgesic, anti inflammatory and astringent and it is also a healing agent when used as herbal tea.
It grows on poor, dry and drained soils.
Dig a hole at least two or three times as wide and deep as the root ball. Take out the plant from the container and loosen roots to allow them to spread out in all direction. Cut possible broken roots. Mix the soil extracted with a substrate and fill part of the hole with the mixture obtained. Place the plant in the hole and cover with the remaining mixture. Compact the soil around the plant and water thoroughly.
