Super cute little gray foliage fits snuggly on the ground and gently creeps along covering completely wherever it goes. Tiny, charming pink flowers on short spikes cover plant in early summer. Plant around taller perennials, between pavers or as a lawn substitute. This STEPABLE is happy in soil or gravel, but needs sharp drainage to be content. Shear back blooms to keep tidy. Drought Tolerant/Drought Wise

What a plant!!! Love this one! I believe this is one of the best we have to replace lawns. It is very tight to the ground, neat foliage and cool flower. I like this one so much I just might have to find a large area to plant it...tucking it into a few tight places just doesn't seem to do it justice.
