Armeria alliacea x maritima Bees Ruby
Description of plant at maturity:
A delightful clump forming evergreen plant (also known as ''Thrift'') ideal for edging, container culture or simply adding colour to the front of garden beds and rockeries. Tall, leafless stems of deep cerise coloured flowers cluster together to form impressive round globes from late winter through spring which last well if cut for fresh posies.
The attractive foliage comprises of broader leaves than normally found in this family providing an interesting textural presence year round.
Armerias are a hardy perennial found in a range of soil types and climatic conditions around the world ranging from storm-swept coastal zones through to alpine meadows. Prefers a full sun position in a friable, well drained soil. Although dry tolerant once established occasional deep watering through extended periods of heat will maintain a more robust performance.
No pruning required although removing spent flower stems will encourage further displays. Feed with a slow release fertiliser in spring.
