Product Information
We do our best to ensure product descriptions, specifications, care information and other details are accurate and up to date. Information is provided as a general guide and may vary between batches, suppliers, individual plants or product revisions.

Stock availability
Website stock levels update live from our inventory system, but occasional discrepancies can occur due to in-store sales, damage or stock adjustments. This is more likely when only 1 or 2 units are showing as available.

Product images
Images are provided as a visual guide and may not show the exact individual item for sale. Plants can naturally vary in size, fullness, colour, shape and stage of growth, and images may show a mature specimen to demonstrate how a younger plant may develop.

Images are either owned by Kambarang Garden Centre, used under an appropriate licence or with permission, or created with AI assistance. AI imagery is used to improve the background of existing photos, and to provide representative images where a suitable real-world photo is difficult or impractical to obtain, particularly for mature plants. Special care is taken to preserve the genuine appearance, colour, form, foliage, flowers and growth habit as accurately as current AI image technology allows.

Plant sizing
Plant sizes refer to the pot size, not the exact size of the plant. For example:

  • 100 mm = 10 cm diameter pot
  • 140 mm = 14 cm diameter pot
  • 5 L = 5 litre pot

Smaller pot sizes generally indicate younger plants, although actual plant size can vary significantly between species, varieties and growth habits.

Description

Convolvulus cneorum, commonly known as Silverbush, is a hardy and attractive groundcover originating from the Mediterranean Basin. Known for its soft, silvery foliage that forms a dense, low-growing mound, Silverbush reflects light beautifully, adding a bright contrast to garden beds and borders. This evergreen groundcover performs best in Perth's full sun to part shade, making it a versatile option for various garden settings, from coastal landscapes to mixed plantings in rockeries.

In Kambarang (Late Spring) through to Birak (Early Summer), Silverbush produces charming, funnel-shaped white flowers with a delicate pink tint, which open each morning and close by evening. It thrives in well-draining sandy or loamy soils and requires minimal watering once established, with occasional water needed during extended dry spells. Its resilience in Perth’s climate, combined with its drought tolerance and ability to handle wind exposure, makes Silverbush an ideal choice for water-wise gardens or large containers.
