Cerastium tomentosum
Cerastium tomentosum is a mat-forming alpine with masses of pure white flowers set against soft, silvery foliage. Its low-growing, spreading habit creates a striking carpet of colour in late spring and early summer.
Ideal for softening edges and spilling gracefully over walls, paths, and raised beds, this hardy perennial thrives in sunny, well-drained conditions. Its drought-tolerant nature makes it particularly well suited to rockeries, gravel gardens, and dry banks.
