Water Saving Tip:

Replace turf with groundcovers, trees, and shrubs. If you have areas where no one uses the grass, patches that do not grow well, or a turf area too small to water without runoff, consider replacing the turf with water-efficient landscaping.

  • Description

  • Notes

'Eximea' is a cultivar of D. cneorum, selected for its slightly larger leaf and flower size. Like the species, 'Eximea' has dark green to grey-green leaves and deep pink, fragrant flowers. Place it near a walk or gateway so that it's lovely fragrance may be enjoyed. With it's prostrate habit, it may be used as a groundcover, but it is slow growing.
