Thick carpet for rocky slides!
An ornamental, evergreen plant that forms dense thickets of small rosettes of leaves strewn with many flowers on thin pedicels. Height up to 15 cm.
Blooms in May-June. Indispensable when creating a foundation on rocky hills.
Agrotechnics.
The plant is cold-resistant and prefers fertile, sufficiently moist soils and semi-shaded areas.
Propagated by sowing seeds in March in boxes. Seeds do not close up but are only lightly sprinkled with sand. At a temperature of +20 ºС shoots appear on the 14-20th day. Seedlings dive into the phase of the first true leaf. Planted in open ground in July, maintaining a distance between plants of 20-30 cm. In April, seeds can be sown directly in place. For the winter, plants are covered with a layer of leaves 10 cm.
