Santolina chamaecyparissus, commonly known as Santolina or Cotton Lavender, is a compact Mediterranean shrub valued for its silvery-grey foliage and bright yellow button-like flowers. Its fine, aromatic leaves and rounded growth habit create a soft, structured appearance, making it ideal for borders, rock gardens, and low hedges. Perfectly adapted to Cyprus’ climate, it thrives in hot, dry conditions and is highly drought-tolerant once established. It prefers sunny locations and well-drained soil, requiring minimal maintenance. Its strong fragrance also makes it useful for natural pest repellent planting.
