Origin
The Saxifraga arendsii Ice Colours Red, also known as the Mossy Saxifrage, is originally from the Alps and other mountainous regions in Europe. In the past, the plant was extensively used for its strong growth and survival capabilities, serving as coverage for rock faces and high mountain areas.
Characteristics
The Saxifraga arendsii Ice Colours Red is a ground-covering, frost-hardy perennial. The plant flowers from June to August with small red flowers that attract bees and butterflies. The plant's leaves are evergreen, making it a perfect plant for creating wintergreen ground cover. This plant grows 10-15 cm high.
Care
The Saxifraga arendsii Ice Colours Red requires little care. The plant prefers slightly acidic to neutral soil and can cope well with both full sun and partial shade. Giving occasional water is enough since too much moisture can be harmful. Pruning after flowering stimulates a second bloom later in the season.
