    A profusion of papery, pale pink flowers fading to white towards the centre during June and July and wavy-margined, grey-green leaves. This graceful, low-growing rock rose provides excellent, all-year groundcover for sheltered, sunny areas of the garden. Why not grow it at the front of the border with other sun-loving Mediterranean plants, where the detail of the flowers can be appreciated close-up?

  • Garden care: After flowering pinch back young plant to encourage a bushy habit. Lightly trim or cut back any stems that spoil the symmetry of the plant.

  • Goes well with: Anthemis tinctoria 'E.C. Buxton', Stachys byzantina 'Silver Carpet', Ceratostigma willmottianum, Eryngium variifolium, Artemisia absinthium 'Lambrook Silver', Perovskia 'Blue Spire'
