Summer planting
Contrary to popular opinion, summer planting is fine as long as adequate water is provided throughout any prolonged dry periods. This allows you to take advantage of increased summer growth.
Acaena anserinifolia var. sericeinitens
Height: 0.1m;  Spread: 1m
Piripiri (Ground Cover)
Attractive blue-grey foliage makes this an ideal slow spreading groundcover in the alpine or rock garden. If humidity is high, plant it in a windy, exposed site.
