Description

Plant Cerastium tomentosum into rock crevices, paving cracks, walls and gravel gardens where it will form a spreading mat of silvered foliage followed by incredible quantities of white starry flowers in spring/summer. This vigorous, drought-tolerant perennial will quickly cover dry banks and other difficult, sun-parched spots. Height: 15cm (6in). Spread: 60cm (24in).

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.
