Can someone identify this plant please, its evergreen and flowers late
May for 4/5 weeks. (It grows to a small bush and can spread about 30"

We also had the White flower version of the same plant, but that died
off during the harsh winter and I would like to replace the plant
please.
It looks like a cistus

There are a lot of different Cistuses, but this might be Cistus x
purpureus.

Thanks for the replies, now I know the name, I checked for the white flower version and it looks like they are also called "Alan Fradd"

Buy rock rose Cistus × purpureus 'Alan Fradd': Delivery by Crocus.co.uk

Thank you
