A versatile addition suitable for various applications, including rock gardens and planters, owing to its tolerance of drought and resistance to salt spray. To maintain its vitality, it's advisable to refrain from excessive fertilization. While it forms compact, rounded mounds, it's worth noting that its growth habit can become somewhat lax after the flowering period. For optimal results, ensure well-drained soil and consider pruning after the flowering phase to promote a neat and healthy appearance.
