Bush Morning Glory, Silverbush
Convolvulus cneorum
A mounding shrub with silver-gray to silver-green, silky, lance-shaped foliage. Masses of white morning glory flowers with yellow centers cover this plant in spring and summer. Buds have a pink tint and this can occasionally carry over into the open blooms. Can be a short lived shrub in Las Vegas and will die quickly if it doesn't like its location. Established plants will live several years, sometimes longer. Fertilize in spring. Drought tolerant. Can take reflected heat, but also welcomes some light shade in our low desert climate. Trim for shape in fall if it starts becoming leggy. Be sure to reduce its water in winter or it may rot.
