Description

Dwarf habit with excellent branching, this variety features soft, silvery, scented foliage; low maintenance with a controlled spread; heat and drought tolerant, showing excellent performance in rock gardens, containers and garden beds. Silver Threads Curry Bush is primarily valued in the garden for its broadly spreading habit of growth. This plant emits a strong curry aroma. It is generally considered edible and often used in Mediterranean cooking for aroma rather than eating raw—but is rarely recommended for culinary use due to a bitter, sage-like taste rather than a true spice flavor.
Care

This is a relatively low maintenance plant, and should only be pruned after flowering to avoid removing any of the current season's flowers.  Dwarf habit with excellent branching, this variety features soft, silvery, scented foliage; low maintenance with a controlled spread; heat and drought tolerant, showing excellent performance in rock gardens, containers and garden beds
