California-Friendly Plant: Coastal Rosemary

Coastal RosemaryIf you're looking for an easy way to keep your California- Friendly garden colorful all year long, then an evergreen plant is the right choice for you. Coastal Rosemary is a medium-sized evergreen shrub that blooms white flowers during the winter and spring, and retains its lush green leaves year-round. It's often found growing wild on California's coastal cliffs, and can be easily sheared for a more handsome look to add to your garden.

Not much attention is required for this plant, and it will grow easily with little water and full sun. And you don't have to worry about pests and diseases with Coastal Rosemary because they are rarely seen in the species. You can find Coastal Rosemary at your local nursery, oftentimes under the common names "Morning Light" and "Smokey."
