Description
Say hello to Gray Owl — a charming and graceful evergreen with a silvery twist! With its soft, silver-gray foliage and wide, spreading habit, this lovely shrub adds year-round texture, color, and wildlife appeal to any garden.
Compact and slow-growing, Gray Owl stays around 2–3 feet tall and spreads up to 6 feet wide — perfect for hedges, groundcover, or filling in those tricky dry spots. A true toughie, it tolerates drought, rocky soil, deer, erosion, black walnut trees, and even air pollution! 🌬️
But the real showstopper? The sweet berry-like cones she produces (yes, she’s a lady! 💁♀️), which attract songbirds and bring a flurry of feathered friends to your yard.
