Dwarf/Spanish Thrift – 1Gallon

Plant Overview

Dwarf Thrift, also known as Spanish Thrift, is a charming evergreen perennial that forms dense, grass-like mounds of foliage. This compact plant produces delightful pink blooms that sit atop slender stems, creating a stunning display from late spring through early summer. Its neat, tufted growth habit makes it an excellent choice for rock gardens, borders, and container plantings.

Plant Information

Plant Care

Dwarf Thrift is remarkably low-maintenance and drought-tolerant once established. Regular deadheading of spent blooms will encourage continuous flowering throughout the season. In late fall, trim back old foliage to maintain a tidy appearance. This hardy plant is resistant to deer and rabbits, making it an excellent choice for gardens in urban and suburban areas.

Planting Instructions

Plant in spring or early fall, spacing plants 8-12 inches apart. Dig a hole twice the width of the root ball and at the same depth. Place the plant in the hole, ensuring the crown is level with the soil surface. Backfill with soil, water thoroughly, and apply a light layer of mulch around the base, keeping it away from the crown to prevent rot. Water regularly during the first growing season to establish a deep root system.
