Description

Rock Soapwort is a true overachiever—blanketing rocky outcrops, stone walls, and spilling over container edges with frothy clouds of rose-pink blooms. This perennial dazzles in late spring through early summer with a carpet of blooms and lush, soft foliage.

As hard-working as it is heavenly, Rock Soapwort thrives where others falter. Deer and drought resistant once established. Ideal for rock gardens, containers, border edges, and slopes in need of a floral facelift.

After flowers fade, cut back by around half and be rewarded by another flush of branching, dense growth and a second bloom.

No shipping data

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.
