Armeria maritima Dusseldorf Pride


Pink Thrift

 USDA Zone: 2-9

Plant number: 1.070.100


(=‘Düsseldorfer Stolz’) Native to seaside cliffs, Thrift is a durable perennial for most any sunny location. Plants form a low tufted mound of grassy green leaves. This selection bears deep pink pompon flowers for many weeks starting in late spring, and usually repeat flowers in the fall. Trim off the spent flowers to encourage repeat blooming. Good rock garden or edging plant. Also excellent in tubs or mixed containers, particularly alpine trough gardens.
