I am a dense low mounding groundcover with massed jelly-pink flowers covering my soft grey foliage from late winter to summer.
I make a great container plant for balconies and courtyards.
My blooms draw in nectar feeding birds from far and wide.
I am suited to most soils with reasonable drainage.
I am a great choice along side pathways, for low borders and rockeries.
