Plant Information
Plant Care
Dwarf Thrift is remarkably low-maintenance and drought-tolerant once established. Regular deadheading of spent blooms will encourage continuous flowering throughout the season. In late fall, trim back old foliage to maintain a tidy appearance. This hardy plant is resistant to deer and rabbits, making it an excellent choice for gardens in urban and suburban areas.
Planting Instructions
Plant in spring or early fall, spacing plants 8-12 inches apart. Dig a hole twice the width of the root ball and at the same depth. Place the plant in the hole, ensuring the crown is level with the soil surface. Backfill with soil, water thoroughly, and apply a light layer of mulch around the base, keeping it away from the crown to prevent rot. Water regularly during the first growing season to establish a deep root system.
