fameflower

Overview

The Fameflower (Phemeranthus calycinus) is an eye-catching, easy-to-care-for plant native to the southwestern United States. It grows in a mounding habit and produces small, five-petaled, star-shaped flowers in shades of bright pink, salmon, and purple. This drought-tolerant plant prefers rocky soils with good drainage and full sun for optimal growth; planting in the spring defends against frosts and periods of extreme cold. While perfect for growing in rock gardens, Fameflower also brightens any flowerbed or container garden. Its evergreen foliage stays green in winter, maintaining the beauty of your landscape year-round.
