Greek horehound, native to Southeast Greece, Crete, and West Turkey. Very similar to B. pseudodictamnus, but slightly lower growing and much whiter foliage. It is a compact, evergreen subshrub growing to 50 cm. Small rounded grey-green felt like leaves, bearing whorls of small violet coloured flowers with funnel-shaped green calyces in late summer and autumn. It is tolerant of poor soil and drought and can be used as ground cover in a sunny location. Trim to maintain dense bushy growth.

Super white foliage contrasts well with brightly coloured flowering companion plants like Salvias.
