Overview
Rhodanthemum 'Casablanca' is a charming, mound-forming evergreen perennial prized for its profusion of large, crisp white daisy-like flowers featuring dark, warm centres.

Reaching a mature height of 30 cm and a spread of 40 cm, this hard-working, low-maintenance perennial thrives in full sun and sharply drained soil. Highly drought-tolerant once established, 'Casablanca' is an exceptional choice for sunny border fronts, rockeries, gravel gardens, and patio pots, bringing reliable colour and structure to the garden.
