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" across and about 2ft high)

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.

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
