CONVOLVULUS CNEORUM

Overview & Features

• Convolvulus cneorum is a compact, evergreen shrub valued for its silvery foliage and pure white flowers.

• Produces trumpet-shaped white blooms with soft yellow centres from late spring into summer.

• Leaves are narrow, lance-shaped, and covered in silky silver hairs.

• Forms a low, rounded mound with a neat growth habit.

• Typically grows 30–60 cm in height and spread.

• Ideal for Mediterranean-style gardens, gravel beds, and coastal planting.

• Drought tolerant once established.

• Attractive to bees and pollinators.

This plant is prized for its bright, reflective foliage and long-lasting summer display.

Planting & Positioning

• Plant in full sun for best flowering and compact growth.

• Requires well-drained soil and dislikes heavy, wet conditions.

• Performs particularly well in sandy or gravelly soils.

• Avoid planting in areas prone to winter waterlogging.

• Ideal for borders, rockeries, raised beds, and containers.

• Dig a hole twice as wide as the rootball and the same depth.

• Plant at the same depth as it was in the pot and firm gently.

• Suitable for coastal and exposed sites with good drainage.

Convolvulus thrives in warm, sunny, free-draining positions.

Watering, Feeding & Flowering

• Water regularly during the first growing season to establish roots.

• Once established, plants are highly drought tolerant.

• Avoid overwatering, especially during winter.

• Feed lightly in spring with a balanced fertiliser if soil is poor.

• Excess feeding can reduce flowering and cause leggy growth.

• Flowering typically occurs from late spring through summer.

• Full sun encourages heavier blooming and stronger foliage colour.

Good drainage and sunlight are essential for reliable flowering.

Pruning, Maintenance & General Care

• Lightly trim after flowering to maintain a compact shape.

• Avoid cutting back into old woody stems where possible.

• Remove any dead or damaged growth as needed.

• Protect from severe winter wet and prolonged frost in colder areas.

• Mulch lightly with gravel to improve drainage and reflect heat.

• Generally low maintenance once established in the right conditions.

With full sun and sharp drainage, Convolvulus cneorum will provide silvery evergreen structure and bright white summer flowers year after year
