Features
Thrift appeared regularly in the designer gardens at 2022’s RHS Chelsea Flower Show. Armeria pseudarmeria Sweet Dreams hails from the crags and salt marshes of the rocky Portuguese coastline; the closely related English native, is Armeria maritima, which similarly tolerates salt water spray (not a problem for everyone) and drought conditions!
The white flowers appear from May to August, attracting native pollinators, particularly bees. Once established it is drought tolerant.
