Description

'Point Sal Spreader' is an evergreen shrub that quickly grows 1'-2.5' tall and 10'-12' wide. Foliage is silver white and lance-shaped. Pinkish lavender flowers in whorled clusters cover the shrub in spring. It prefers full sun and well draining soil. It is drought tolerant once it's established. This is a great groundcover and erosion control plant for hillsides. Give it enough room to spread.

Water Saving Tip:

Replace turf with groundcovers, trees, and shrubs. If you have areas where no one uses the grass, patches that do not grow well, or a turf area too small to water without runoff, consider replacing the turf with water-efficient landscaping.
