How to Grow and Care for Barometerbush

Leucophyllum frutescens or texas ranger is used often as an ornamental plant as it is fairly easy to grow. While it is sometimes known as Texas sage, it is not an actual sage as it belongs to the barometer bush genus (Leucophyllum).

Big bend barometerbush is a resilient shrub, flourishing in arid climates with its silvery-green foliage and a dense, rounded habit. Drought-tolerant by nature, it bursts sporadically into vibrant purple flowers that serve as a contrast to its otherwise muted tones, attracting pollinators even in sparse environments. Big bend barometerbush's compact size and hardiness make it an ideal choice for xeriscaping, adapting well to rocky, well-draining soils.
