Arabis blepharophylla 'Spring Charm'

Arabis blepharophylla (Rock Cress)

Rock Cress

Pinkish-rose tinted flowers, tufted and procumbent, basal leaves obovate, tapering toward the base. Foliage is covered with very soft stellate pubescence.

Growing & Maintenance Tips
Full sun in a very well-drained soil. Cut back after flowering to promote a denser growth habit. Great for the rock garden, dry stone wall, in a border, as an edging plant.

Interesting Information
Arabis is the Greek word for Arabian. Arabis should be pruned back after flowering to retain a compact plant. Failure to do this will result in plants becoming straggly.
