Irish Moss
Sagina Subulata
Excellent ground cover and also very good for use between flagstones in pathways. Tolerates light foot traffic, but not for a heavily used pathway. Nice choice for the rock garden, too.
Zones: 4 - 8
Height: 1 - 4 inches
Full to Partial Sun..............Light shade in the south is a must
An evergreen ground cover. The mossy foliage grows just 1 - 3 inches tall
and creates the effect of a moss-covered meadow.
During early to midsummer when it blooms, it is covered with small white
flowers.
Needs moisture retentive, gritty, well-drained soil.
Not a true moss, but these tiny plants resemble moss and are terrific planted around flagstones, in containers or used as a small scale ground cover.
Seed: Pkt is 200+ seeds. Note: Seeds are very fine (small). Direct sowing is not recommended.
