Planting time

Care
- If the plant is divided every 2-3 years and weak roots and shoots are removed, the reward is better growth and flowering vigour! - Rock garden plants love loose, well-drained soil. However, as this substrate stores little water, the plants must be watered regularly for several weeks after planting, especially in dry conditions, until they are sufficiently rooted.

Use
Tubs, cutting, group planting, rock garden, bee pasture
