Notes
Cistus x obtusifolius Thrive, also known as the Rock or Sun Rose, is a compact, evergreen shrub that thrives in dry, poor soil. It bears small, five-petalled flowers with yellow centres, rather like those of the wild rose. Although each flower only lasts for a day, the plant blooms over a long period
