Tell Me More...
Easy to grow cushions of soft, yellow bloomsDerived from species found in the mountains of southwest Europe, Arenaria montana 'Lemon Ice' is an attractive, mat forming, flowering evergreen. From April to June, plants are covered in masses of cup-shaped, creamy lemon flowers, much to the delight of pollinators. Foliage is greyish green, linear to lance-shaped, creating mounds of delicate texture all year round. A vigorous growth habit means this perennial will quickly cascade over walls, fill crevices, or cover ground in a rockery or dry border. An exceptionally easy, low maintenance source of late spring colour and evergreen interest. Also suitable for container growing. Prefers free draining, sandy poor soil in full sun, though will tolerate some shade. Avoid excessive winter wet to see this delightful plant fully thrive. H&S: 15cm x 30cm. Hardy, evergreen perennial.
