Convolvulus - Cameo Elegance
Silvery, refined, and softly romantic, Convolvulus cneorum 'Cameo Elegance' is a Bush Morning Glory with all the Mediterranean charm of the species and a sweet pink twist. From spring through summer, this tidy little evergreen mound — about 1 to 2 feet tall and wide — is dotted with classic morning-glory trumpets, but instead of the usual pure white, 'Cameo Elegance' opens in delicate shell-pink with subtle yellow throats. The shimmering silver, lance-shaped foliage stays handsome year-round, giving structure and light even when the plant isn't in flower.
A genuinely drought-tolerant evergreen perennial for zones 7-10, this Convolvulus thrives in full sun with sharp drainage and asks for very little once established. It's deer-resistant, beginner-friendly, and beloved by bees and butterflies. The compact, mounding habit makes it ideal for containers, where the silver foliage glows beautifully against terracotta and stone.
Tuck it into the front of a sunny border, line a pathway with several for a rhythmic edge, or pair it with lavender, rosemary, and other Mediterranean classics for a planting that looks luminous from spring straight through fall.
