APPEARANCE : Low dense mossy-looking groundcover, evergreen with golden foliage and dotted with tiny white flowers in summer. Native to Europe, surprisingly related to carnations.

PLANTING :  Give it full sun, regular water, and good drainage. Happy to grow in most soil types with good drainage. Tolerates dry spells and frost.
CARE : Water regularly until the plant is established, usually around 12 weeks. Fertilise with a slow release fertiliser in spring. If mature plants develop a brown patch, spray with a fungicide. For a lawn effect mow lightly monthly in summer and once in winter, otherwise leave to grow. Check for fairies and pixies before mowing.
HEIGHT & WIDTH :  2 - 5 cm H. Will spread and self-sow until removed.
YOUR PLANTS : These are tubestock plants, healthy young plants with new roots that will establish quickly in your garden. The pot size is 80mm high and 42 mm wide.
