Twin Peaks Coyote Brush
Baccharis pilularis ‘Twin Peaks’
Baccharis pilularis 'Twin Peaks' is a fast-growing, evergreen ground cover shrub prized for its dense, billowy, dark green foliage and exceptional adaptability. A California native selection (female form), it forms a low, wide, weed-suppressing mat of small, densely packed leaves. From October to January, it produces small, white flowers followed by fluffy, cotton-like seed heads that provide important late-season food for birds. With outstanding tolerance for drought, poor soils, clay, alkalinity, salt spray, and seasonal flooding, it is an ideal choice for large-scale ground cover, erosion control on slopes, wildlife gardens, and challenging landscapes.
