Sagina subulata Irish Moss
Sagina subulata
Irish Moss
One of our most popular plants! This beauty has dense tufts of slender stems which grow together to form a lush carpet of green. Small, star-shaped, white flowers cover completely in spring. Ideal as a groundcover, terrific between rocks and stones. This plant is an excellent choice for woodland areas, along streams, on small slopes or between pavers.
