This Proven Winners’ plant from Croatia really is a winner. Brilliant yellow-tipped light green conifer shaped leaves become orange tinged during early and late season growing conditions. The 6 to 8 inch tall by up to 12 inch wide plant is a strong grower and is as tough as nails, successfully over wintering in rock pockets and at the edges of planters left outdoors and ignored. Use this one not only in the traditional sunny dry garden as a groundcover, edging, or accent but also in combination hanging baskets, as planter or barrel edging. Best color develops in full sun.
Throughout this site, the following are used as guidelines for watering established plants:
These truly xeric plants can live with our 12 inches of natural annual precipitation and only need a winter watering during a multi-year drought, but they will thrive with a monthly watering. Overwatering will kill some of these. These plants are adapted to intermittent deep
watering with soil drying to a depth of a few inches between waterings. Watering frequency may be every couple of weeks during the active growing season and maybe only one winter watering for optimal care. These plants need regular watering somewhat like a bluegrass lawn so that
they never dry to depth in the root system during the active growing season, and need occasional winter watering to prevent root dessication and resultant plant
death. About sizes of our plants:
Sizes indicated with a # are roughly the equivalent in gallonage; so a #2 is about a 2 gallon pot size; b&b stands for balled and burlapped.
