Help with plant identification
I would be grateful for any help identifying this plant. Its leaves are somewhat sticky underneath. I've not yet managed to catch it in flower. Seen it growing to 1m50 where I live (Paris region). Someone said it might be of the cistus family, but have not been able to find it. Thanks in advance.

Have you seen any of it flower?
No. I 'visited' it in April and have just found a photo I took of it then. They look like flower buds, don't they ? Wasn't able to see it again until June and then only caught the dead heads, which look similar to the buds but brown...
The flower buds look like the cistyus populifolius, try this link?

Thank you very much. I think that may be it. There seems to be very little information in English about the plant - maybe because it's native to the mediterranean. Happy gardening.
