Leucophyllum pruinosum
Texas rangers are a widespread group of well-known plants for their ability to survive in cold weather, resist drought, and thrive in hot, sunny climates. Among the most fragrant species in this group, 'Sierra Bouquet' is a superior selection with dense silver foliage and a heavy blooming habit.
This large shrub, also known as bubble gum sage, produces dark royal purple bell-shaped flowers emitting a delicious grape bubble gum aroma when they bloom in late summer and fall. 'Sierra Bouquet' has a rounded but open form without requiring any pruning, and it keeps more foliage in winter than many other Texas ranger cultivars, making it an excellent foundation for natural landscape designs. It also tolerates heavy pruning if a smaller shrub is desired.
