Teucrium fruticans

commonly known as the Tree Germander or Shrubby Germander, is a hardy, evergreen shrub popular in ornamental landscaping. Native to the Mediterranean, it has attractive silver-gray foliage with a soft, fuzzy texture that contrasts beautifully with its small, pale blue to lavender flowers, which bloom primarily in spring and summer. This drought-tolerant shrub can reach up to 1.5–2 meters in height and width, making it ideal for hedges, borders, or as a focal point in xeriscape or Mediterranean-style gardens. It thrives in full sun and well-draining soils, providing year-round color and structure.
