The Firewitch Garden Pink is a mat-forming evergreen perennial that is perfect for any and all hot, sunny, dry places in your garden. Low-growing, it is wonderful in rock gardens and xeric gardens, along paths, edging beds or planted with evergreens among rocks and gravel. The needle-like gray-blue leaves sparkle in the sunlight year-round, except when they are hidden by a cloud of abundant pink flowers like single carnations. A rich purple-pink, they come in spring, and through summer and into fall more sparingly, keeping this plant always attractive – heck, even with just the leaves it is as lovely as any juniper. Forms a low mat just a few inches tall, but up to 2 feet wide, reaching about 8 inches tall when the blooms rise up.

  • Richly fragrant deep rose-pink blooms in spring, summer and fall
  • Handsome year-round blue-gray foliage resembling a juniper
  • Forms a low, broad mat of weed-suppressing leaves
  • Thrives in hot and dry conditions
  • Very cold resistant

Plant the Firewitch Garden Pink in full sun in any well-drained soil. It grows well even in poor, sandy and stony soils, but not in wet, rich ground. It is hardy even in zone 3, and stays attractive throughout the winter months. Deer won’t eat it and pests and diseases are almost unknown. Trim lightly after flowering to keep it dense and neat – it will quickly recover with a crop of new leaves, soon looking sparkling and fresh. Trimming also encourages additional flowers in summer and fall.
