Ozothamnus Sussex Silver

Ozothamnus ‘Sussex Silver’ is an evergreen shrub valued for its fine, silvery foliage that brings year‑round texture and contrast to sunny, free‑draining sites. In Irish gardens it performs best in full sun with sharply drained soil and a sheltered position, making a striking accent in mixed borders or gravel plantings where its foliage can be appreciated.

To help give a clear sense of scale, the stone wall shown in our photos measures approximately 265cm in height. We also use familiar garden tools as visual references: a digging fork (110cm tall) and a hand fork (30cm tall). These are included purely as size guides to help you better judge proportions when viewing the images.
