Saponaria × lempergii 'Max Frei'
Height x Spread: 30cm x 30cm
Masses of distinctive five-petaled, lilac-pink flowers are carried in loose clusters over a low mound of mid-green narrow foliage. Mat-forming by nature, it creates useful ground cover
This evergreen 'soapwort' is a great choice for planting near steps, edging a pathway or the front of a raised area, highlighting its prolific, gently tumbling flowers. It also looks very effective in a rock or gravel garden, delivering year round interest. Avoid planting in too rich a soil, as its habit will become more lax. This very unfussy plant thrives in very poor, free draining soil in full sun.
