Snow in Summer Seeds - Cerastium Tomentosum - White Ground Cover

The white ground cover - Snow in Summer (Cerastium Tomentosum) - is a mat-forming perennial 6 inches tall by 12 - 24 inches wide. Snow in Summer is a dense, creeping, ground cover that does not tolerate foot traffic. But, it works great on the sunny banks too steep for mowing, or in the cracks of the stone walls and rocky steps. After the flowering period, you need to cut back Snow in Summer plant to tidy up the plant. Snow in Summer ground cover can spread by self-sowing. Generally, the rock cress takes one year to get established, and then begins to spread in its second season. Once established, it is drought tolerant and needs little watering.   PLANT INFORMATION: Plant Type: Ground coverPlant Name: Snow in Summer  Taxonomy: Cerastium Tomentosum  Life cycle: Perennial USDA Zones: 3 - 10 Height: 6 inches Bloom Season: Late spring and summer Bloom Color: White Light Preferences: Full sun  Foot Traffic: No Soil Type: Well-drained, pH 6.5 - 7.2 Deer Resistant: Yes PL
