Planting and care

A mountain plant, liking a rather dry limestone, rocky and poor soil as well as a position in full sun. Perfect for rockeries, the top of a wall, paving or borders in dry soil. Cut back the faded flowers with shears so that they do not go to seed and to maintain a compact and bushy appearance.
