Aubrieta 'Royal Mixed'

(Aubretia)

  • Rare hybrid
  • Superb cut flower
For ground cover with supreme flowering ability this variety of an old favourite takes a lot of beating. They will tumble happily from cracks in walls, creep across rockeries, and crawl through the front of mixed borders. Forming dense mats of evergreen foliage with a profusion of spring blooms, these tough little plants thrive in reasonably poor soils with a toughness that belies their beauty. Height: 5cm (2"); spread 60cm (24"). Supplied as plug tray plants.
