Description

Pink Breath of Heaven is a finely textured wispy shrub growing 5' tall and wide, with tiny pink flowers blooming from spring through fall. Foliage is soft, needle like leaves, creating a billowy effect. It needs good drainage and can be planted in sun or part shade. It needs a medium amount of water. Plant along walkways so you can brush the foliage to release the aromatic oils.

Water Saving Tip:

Watering every day results in shallow roots.

Instead, water deeply every few days using the Cycle and Soak method (two or more short run times, each separated by about an hour).
