Armeria General Information

Armeria pseudarmeria are extremely tolerant of both heat and salt while remaining fresh and evergreen. These False Sea Thrifts have broader leaves, stiffer stems and lush ball-shaped flowers in abundance all summer long. Often reblooms when deadheaded. Idaho has restricted all potted plant material from being shipped into Idaho at this time.

Armeria Plant Care

Shear off all old flowers when blooming is done for attractive little clumps all year long. Does best in poor dry soil. Can be divided in spring by splitting clump with a spade. However, it will be slow to recover and these plants usually prefer to be left undisturbed. May benefit from loose winter mulch for protection. Fertilizer is usually not necessary.

Plantable Pots

Our plants are grown in 3.5x3.5x4” plantable pots. Made from 100% biodegradable coconut husk fibers (coir), these pots have tremendous advantages over plastic pots. With better air exchange, this "breathable" pot fosters robust root growth and reduces transplant shock since you can plant the pots directly in the ground. The pot naturally becomes part of the soil on its own over time—no composting required—and since they're made from a renewable resource that requires very little energy, they're earth-friendly too!

100% Guarantee

We offer a 100% unconditional guarantee for all our perennials to reach you in good condition and to grow. If you're not satisfied, we'll reship or refund immediately. Please don't hesitate to contact us if you have questions or concerns—we share your passion for gardening and want your new plants to thrive in your border!
