Plant uses

A very useful landscaping plant for both practical and aesthetic reasons. The long display of colour makes this a favourite plant for edging around garden beds or cascading from retaining walls and rockeries. They can be used as a ground covers for low maintenance areas whilst small groups of plants can be used between shrubs and perennials in the garden to act as an attractive 'fill in' for bare patches as well as shading out weeds.

Cultural care

Dry tolerant once established. Water when dry for first 6 weeks after planting and in dry weather. Prune by up to half overall size after main flowering flush to maintain a neat habit and encourage further flushes. Apply a slow release fertiliser during spring for optimum results.
