Leucophyllum ‘San Antonio Rose’ PP33454 is an evergreen, broadleaf shrub with a compact, dense, rounded habit and featuring large, bright rose-pink flowers and silvery-green foliage. It blooms spring to fall and frequently bursting into bloom immediately following rain or humidity spikes. Blooming can sometimes be started by overhead watering. Uses include privacy screens, hedges, mass plantings, or as a specimen plant in desert and arid landscapes. Excellent in desert and seacoast landscapes and tolerates most intermountain conditions. Requires full, intense sun to reflective sun to maintain its dense habit and bloom well. It has low shade tolerance and will perform poorly. It needs well-drained soil. It handles rocky, sandy, alkaline, limestone-based, or poor soils but will fail in chronically wet or soggy sites. It was bred to thrive in tough, alkaline, heavy, and compacted soils found in urban southwestern cities. Regular irrigation when installed and acclimating; low water needs once established. Irrigation should be slow and deep. Deer-resistant. Resistant to Verticillium wilt. Fire-resistant. Cold hardy to 0°F.
