A dainty little alpine. Shallow rooting, it forms a creeping mat and will grow in cracks between rocks or slabs or in a container or gravel garden etc. Lovely white flowers in spring and summer and often through to autumn. Vigorous but not invasive.
Shallow rooted, which is why it grows in cracks etc.
Easily grown in any area of the garden. Said to prefer partial shade but it grows well in shade and sun here.
Can be grown in a lawn among the grass for an interesting effect when it flowers.
