How to grow Cistus x pulverulentus successfully?

Cistus has a spreading habit (60 cm high by 80 cm wide), and is best planted in sunny situations. It prefers well-drained soil, even if poor and chalky, and does not tolerate excess root moisture in winter. Light pruning is recommended after flowering, but too much could compromise its health. For a good ground cover, plan for around 2 plants per square metre. Hardy down to -12°C, Cistus is remarkably drought-resistant.
