‘Splendens’ Armeria is a welcome addition to a sunny rock garden, pathway, border, or container, where it will slowly spread. It is useful as a groundcover and is not fussy. It prefers lean, infertile soils; if planted in richer soils, the leaves tend to fall outwards leaving a bare center. Plant in a sunny spot with good drainage, and water regularly to establish; once mature, it is a drought-tolerant, low maintenance perennial. It is virtually disease and pest-free. The blossoms make nice cut flowers too. When blooming is done, shear off the spent flowers for nice clumps of dark green foliage. Armeria tolerates salty and seaside areas also, lending to its common name, Sea Thrift
As soon as your order is placed you will receive a confirmation email. You will receive a second email the day your order ships telling you how it has been sent. Some perennials are shipped as potted plants, some as perennial roots packed in peat. The ‘Plant Information’ section describes how that item will ship. All perennials and fall-planted bulbs are packaged to withstand shipping and are fully-guaranteed. Please open upon receipt and follow the instructions included.
Perennials and fall-planted bulbs are shipped at the proper planting time for your Growing Zone. Perennial and fall-planted bulb orders will arrive separately from seeds. If your order requires more than one shipment and all items are shipping to the same address, there is no additional shipping charge. See our shipping information page for approximate ship dates and more detailed information. If you have any questions, please call Customer Service at (802) 227-7200 or contact us by email or chat.
