This hardy plant can survive low temperatures.

This is a very low-maintenance ground cover. Its mantra is "everything in moderation". Give it medium moisture, dappled light (with more sun than shade), and here-and-there feeding, and it will be happy. It does like some richness to its soil. You may want to pull out spent flower stems from time to time to keep this ground cover tidy, but this is not really necessary.

This moss-like foliage forms a dense, cushy mat with a bright green color. From walkways to the spaces between stepping stones, there are endless uses for Sagina subulata. It does wonderfully as a substitute for grass in the fairy garden. In the springtime, translucent white flowers add to its beauty. They have a light, airy fragrance. This herbaceous perennial tolerates light foot traffic. Relatively easy to care for, it should be grown in partial sun to full shade. 

Sagina subulata will be available again when the temperatures are moderate. It suffers too much from the heat during transit.
