Description

'Pigeon Point' Coyote Bush is a compact, evergreen ground cover that grows 18"- 24" tall and 10'-12' wide. Its leaves are green; it has white flowers that bloom in the fall but they are not overly dramatic. It is important to plant this ground cover at least 6'-8' apart. Otherwise they will overgrow each other and begin to pile upwards. 'Pigeon Point' is tolerant of ocean spray and is deer resistant.
