Description

Open evergreen shrub grows to to 6' x 6'. Has a spreading habit and somewhat pendulous branches. Dark green, somewhat succulent leaves grow to 2" long & 1/4" wide.

This is one tough dependable xeric flowering shrub where space is available to let it just grow. Pruning will often destroy its free form appearance.
