Zenobia pulverulenta

Overview

Dusty Zenobia (Zenobia pulverulenta) is a beautiful evergreen shrub that can reach up to five feet in height. It produces small, white, bell-shaped flowers in winter that contrast nicely against its dusty green leaves, which take on a more vibrant hue in full sun. All parts of this plant are covered in a powdery flour-like substance, which gives it a unique fuzzy texture. Its drought tolerance makes this an easy-care garden plant and it can make an attractive addition to any landscape.
