Arenaria montana 'Snow White'

mountain sandwort

Product Image
A carpeting, low-growing evergreen perennial, the mountain sandwort has delicate, pure white flowers that smother a green cushion of lance-shaped leaves between May and June. Used to great effect when massed together for planting green walls and roofs, 'Snow White' is a shallow rooting, award-winning plant, that's also perfect for rockeries and containers.

How to care for Arenaria montana Snow White:
