No updates for awhile. Working to recover from some surgery.

No updates or mail-order for a few months. I am recovering from surgery. 🙂 Visits would be nice! BTW – they sure know how to shave close to the putting green.

Plants will vary in price and container size Some will only be available during dormancy – late Fall or early Spring — and will be updated this winter. Seed or plant exchanges are always welcome!
Due to PayPal’s inability to handle and charge appropriate fees for multiple combinations I decided to re-edit all my listings to a ‘plant cost only.’  At the bottom of each listing page will be three default shipping alternatives. I will be happy to combine purchases, and if you send me your zip code I can give you an idea for regional mail alternatives or a Priority Mail rate.

This low maintenance rockery plant prefers average, dryish soil with good winter drainage. Divide every few years in the spring and trim off old stems in spring when new growth appears. Benefits from gravel mulch. Deadhead old blooms to extend flowering period. Flowers are attractive when dried.
Question asked: No it is not vining but does grow wider than high. Say 12-15 inches by some 18 inches wide. It is Xeric and very tough. The foliage is somewhat leathery/plastic like and VERY fragrant. I have been pinching the flower attempts off to get the plants to bush out more. Depending upon taste it would go well with some of the Stachys (lavandulifolius) or macrantha (of which I have a few plants)*family or something that might contrast. Light green sempervivum perhaps.
