Lithodora diffusa 'Alba'

Lithospermum is a choice groundcover or rock garden plant, making an unforgettable display when grown well. This selection forms a low, creeping mat of hairy grey-green leaves, studded with pure white star flowers from late spring through summer. Plants MUST have a well-drained, acidic soil in order to thrive.  Combines well with heathers, since plants have similar requirements. Evergreen where hardy. Prune lightly in late summer by trimming the new tip shoots back by about half, to encourage a dense habit. Plants are shrubby, so hard pruning is not recommended.
