Coyote Brush
Description
Coyote Brush is an Oregon native shrub that reaches 4-6' tall and 4-8' wide. It is very dense-forming with evergreen, small green leaves. Stems are resinous. Fragrant white flowers appear in fall. It does best in full sun with well-draining soil. A very reliable plant for hillside erosion control. Many cultivars available now. Prune by mowing or shearing to control size and increase density.
