    Silver-gray leaves with creamy-white flowers marked by a vivid yellow center.

    'The Bride' is a good marriage for Port Townsend. Loves good drainage, full sun and revels in the heat - great for sidewalks or parking strips. This makes a low mat of evergreen silver-gray foliage which boasts lots of white flowers Apr-July. Cut back hard after flowering. Nothing to it.
