Vauquelinia californica

Arizona Rosewood

One of the toughest evergreen shrubs around. It will tolerate reflected heat or sun and is very drought tolerant. Makes a wonderful screen or informal hedge and requires little maintenance. A great non-toxic alternative to oleander. Creamy white flower clusters attract butterflies in springtime. Prune selectively when young to form a small tree or grow naturally as a hedge.
