Groundcover, Sagina subulata 'Aurea' (Scotch Moss)- 25 per flat
DETAILS AND CARE
This compact and low-growing perennial forms a dense, moss-like mat with vibrant golden-yellow foliage, perfect for creating a unique groundcover in gardens or between stepping stones. Thriving in USDA Zones 4-7, it prefers cooler temperatures and partial to full sun exposure. Scotch Moss exhibits a lush habit, growing to a height of about 1" to 2" tall and spreading approximately 12" wide per plant, making it ideal for flat planting. Small, star-shaped white flowers occasionally appear in late spring, adding delicate accents to its vivid color. It requires well-drained, moist, sandy soil for optimal growth and displays excellent deer resistance. The foliage does not provide notable fall color or fruit. This plant is perfect for brightening shaded areas and providing a soft, carpet-like texture in the garden.
