These Rock Roses are flowering away like mad at the moment.

There are two types of shrubs called Rock Rose, CISTUS that can grow up to six foot high and HELIANTHEMUM that only grow to between 6-9 inches. The flowers of both look very similar and only last a couple of days.

Yes this is the alpine Helianthemum. I have a lot of cement rubble in the soil unfortunately. Rock roses and pinks are partial to alkaline so they dont mind.
Cistus is a beautiful plant too.

Hi, I have got a white flowered Cistus, it is beautiful at the moment, just full of flowers. Unfortunately todays' wind has blown them away!
When I started my own gardening blog a few weeks ago I had no idea that I would be joining such a large and informative community.
So many great photo's, I need to get out there and take some more. I will visit as many blogs as I can and hope to form links.
I am really interested in attracting wildlife into the garden.
