Whitebrush, White-Brush, Beebrush, Jazminillo, Chaparro Blanco, Privet Lippia, Tronsco, Cedron (Aloysia gratissima), Verbenaceae Family, perennial, blooms sporadically March through November (especially after rains)

It can be found occurring on limestone bluffs, sandy soil and gravelly hillsides. It tolerates poorly drained soils and is drought tolerant. The blooms have a vanilla scent which attracts butterflies and bees.
