Horticultural Notes

4-6′ x 3-4′      Albany Woollybush is a highly ornamental, evergreen shrub with soft, needle like, gray green leaves and small, almost inconspicuous red flowers. Woollybush offers new structure and texture to the garden with it’s mounding habit and soft foliage. Grow in full sun to partial shade and supply moderate water.

Woollybush is virtually maintenance free.  I sometimes control the size by judicially cutting tip growth back to a side branch, trying to hide any obvious pruning.
