Purple Rock Rose is a tough, heat loving evergreen shrub that forms a wide mound of gray green foliage covered with showy purple crepe like flowers in summer. Ideal as a foundation plant at the back of a border and useful as a ground cover in mass plantings. Drought tolerant and firewise, it is a wonderful plant for bringing color to landscapes with harsh hot summers. Prefers average to poor well drained soil and little irrigation if any, once established. Semi-deciduous, it will lose most of its leaves in cold winter climates.
