Little Plum hybrid Bitter Root
Quick Facts :: Growing Tips
Legend
Description:
4” x 6” wide (seed propagated) ‘Little Plum’ is an outstanding European hybrid between two of our native Bitter Root species. Its large rose-purple flowers cover the succulent rosette of foliage in mid-spring and often re-appear in the fall. Use this fantastic plant in xeriscapes and rock gardens. Tuck Bitter Root plants into well drained pockets of soil next to north or east facing rocks to provide shade in the summer months. Delosperma congestum (Gold Nugget Iceplant) is a superb companion plant. Zones 4-8.
