£0.59 incl. VAT

This soil hugging perennial seems to thrive in impoverished and hungry shallow soils – carpeting the ground in a gorgeous profusion of bloom in early Spring. Plant in crevices of walls or on a steep bank to flow down in a waterfall cascade of colour. Offered as a new mixed colour selection that includes crimson, violet, purple, lavender blue, pink and intermediate shades.

Recommended by the RHS to be an excellent attractant and nectar source for bees and other beneficial insects, this perennial expects to grow to approximately 6” (15cm) tall. Ideal for beds, borders and patio containers. Prefers full sun or partial shade. Flowering: June-September
