Description

Perennial plants with a clump-forming stump, resembling grass, which has earned them the nickname "Spanish Grass". They prefer sandy and gravelly soils, very well-drained, but remaining moist during the growing season. Perfectly suited for coastal areas, they can be planted in rock gardens, on paving stones or in borders, etc. Their foliage persists during winter.

Large clump with loose foliage. Flowers in large terminal clusters of varying colours, ranging from pale pink to bright pink. Beautiful shape, larger than usual for the genus, and very floriferous.
