Plant Highlights

This coastal native is a sturdy perennial growing in low mounds with grass-like blades and pink pompom flowers on long stems. Great along the coast in full sun, but give it some light shade light shade in hot inland areas. Moderate to little water and decent drainage provide the ideal conditions for this pretty garden accent or border plant. It addes lovely splashes of color to a rock garden or atop a wall.
