Insights
S. Rose Carpet looks lovely positioned in drifts but also has great effect planted in a container on a sunny terrace. The flowers are attractive to bees and butterflies, providing a late-season nectar source. Leave the flowers to form seed heads on the plant for sculptural interest in winter.
