Product Description
Commonly known as tumbling Ted, Saponaria ocymoides is an RHS Award of Garden Merit winning perennial that is a must-have for this year. Growing only 10-15cm tall, with a spread of 60cm, they will produce clusters of small pink flowers on semi-evergreen foliage. Hardy by its nature, Saponaria is versatile enough to be grown as a low-growing carpet plant or trailing gently over a wall. We recommend planting in areas of direct sun in well-drained, fertile soil for the best results. UK-grown 5cm module plants supplied.
