Description

Santolina incana 'Nana' is a semi-woody evergreen perennial with silvery-gray, fragrant foliage and a compact, globe-like growth habit. Half-inch, yellow button flowers bloom in early summer. Commonly called Lavender Cotton, Santolina incana 'Nana' is nice for outlining knot gardens or edging walkways. Plants should be pruned after blooming and pinched frequently to maintain their shape.

Santolina incana 'Nana' is also known as Santolina chamaecyparissus var. nana.

Santolina incana 'Nana' prefers full sun and dry to average soil that is well-drained. It is tolerant of drought and coastal conditions. Plants are very pest resistant, but do not like humidity, which encourages fungal diseases.

All ship times are subject to change if extreme weather conditions are present here at the nursery or at the shipping destination.

Please note: Depending on the time of year, the foliage of the plants may be trimmed to fit into our shipping boxes. This could delay the flowering of the plant, but many perennials actually benefit from being cut back.
