Description
White Warminster Broom (Cytisus x praecox 'Albus') is a striking flowering shrub that captivates the landscape with its stunning white, pea-like flowers in late spring. The branches are smothered in blooms, creating a breathtaking display. While somewhat diminutive for the rest of the year, its graceful arching form and grayish-green foliage continue to offer texture and visual interest throughout the seasons.
This drought-tolerant shrub is perfect for xeriscaping or low-maintenance gardens, as it thrives in full sun and well-drained, clay or alkaline soils. Reaching a mature height of 4 feet with a 4-foot spread, White Warminster Broom fills out the ground beautifully without the need for facer plants. It’s highly resilient to dry conditions, urban pollution, and even environmental salt, making it a great option for city landscapes. This shrub grows at a medium rate and can live for up to 20 years under ideal conditions, offering beauty and reliability in a tough, low-maintenance package.
