Description: ROCK SOAPWORT is a vigorous, low creeping plant, useful for spilling down sunny slopes or over rock walls. Plants form a low mound of bright-green leaves, literally smothered by starry bright-pink flowers in late spring. Also useful as an edging in the sunny border, and worth considering in tubs or pots. Prune plants back hard immediately after blooming, to maintain a compact habit. Clumps may be easily divided in late summer or early spring. Drought tolerant once established.

Or broadcast spread the Saponaria seeds and rake them into the soil lightly. Water lightly after seeding. Rock Soapwort prefers light, well-draining soil, and a sunny setting.
