Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Ground hugging, flattened rosettes of adorably crinkled, evergreen leaves that offset slowly to form a great looking ground cover! The foliage alone makes this worthy in the garden but top it with yellow-centered, pink daisies with long, fine rays on 10” stems in late spring… cute, cute, cute! AM sun, light shade, light soil, average water.
Named for the very unErigeron-like (that little rumble you just felt was my English teacher rolling over in her grave) hummocks of foliage that are texturally amusing in a skewed botanical sense. The ray flowers add to the charm and makes this a suitable plant for the rock garden.
