Lithodora hispidula
Lithodora hispidula, with its sprawling habit and rough-textured leaves, thrives in rocky, well-drained soils. Its vibrant blue flowers, resembling tiny trumpets, appear in spring, providing a striking contrast against the grey-green, hairy foliage. This tough perennial adapts well to Mediterranean climates, enduring both drought and poor soils while offering a rugged charm to rock gardens and xeriscapes.
