Best low-maintenance native shrub for fragrant, pollinator-friendly garden landscapes.
This native shrub brings a sophisticated, pineapple-scented elegance to tough landscapes that usually struggle with color. While its billowy, informal habit requires a bit of space to truly shine, it remains the most reliable way to invite pollinators into a low-water garden.
