Armeria Joystick Red

Fabulous shades of ruby red to rosy pink blooms almost year round. A really hardy plant that puts on a spectacular show. The round flower heads are varied tones of red, this creates a lovely bicolour show. Each bloom is 3-4cm across.

The flowers open on long, narrow stems above the foliage. The leaves are narrow and form neat, dense, evergreen clumps. The leaves grow to around 20cm.

Armeria 'Joystick Lilac' is now botanically known as Armeria pseudarmeria, it was previously known as Armeria atrosanguinea.

Grow Armeria in reasonably fertile, well drained soil. If the soil is soggy they tend to rot. Plant them in a sunny location. Deadhead flowers during the season to extend the show. They will tolerate dry conditions but thrive if kept moist during the flowering season.

Armeria look fantastic in rock gardens, pots, towards the front of borders or along pathways.
