Excellent for groundcover or as a lawn substitute, Sagina subulata forms a low, dense mat of fine evergreen foliage, which becomes dotted with dainty white flowers in summer. This low-maintenance perennial is also great for rockeries, softening path edges or growing in cracks between paving, giving a lovely naturalistic look. Tough and robust, heath pearlwort will cope with heavy foot traffic and is relatively drought tolerant. Height: 10cm (4in). Spread: 30cm (12in).
Plant height and spread is seasonal therefore we list by pot size rather than a defined plant size. The height and spread of the plant delivered will vary depending on the season, meaning arrival images are an indication only.
