✂️ Care
Very easy to grow and low-maintenance. Ideal for borders, rock gardens, and slopes, this variety creates a spectacular floral carpet with its vibrant pink flowers and distinctive dark foliage.
Regularly remove spent flowers to prolong blooming and encourage continuous production of abundant blossoms. A light trim after flowering maintains a compact and dense shape.
Apply a light mulch at the base to improve drainage and enrich the soil. Minimal intervention is required once the plant is established.
