Petrorhagia Saxifraga

The "Tunic Flower" is a low-growing alpine or rock garden plant, which forms a mound of fresh-green leaves, bearing a cloud of tiny white or pale pink flowers beginning in early summer, and continuing for weeks. It is excellent as an edging plant, or growing in the cracks of rock walls where plants will self seed prolifically, unless faded flowers are trimmed off. This species is an excellent choice for summer colour in the rock garden where it will stay evergreen in mild winter areas
