Saxifraga fortunei ‘Rubrifolia’

Interesting and charming groundcover for a cool shady area. Trouble-free and easy to grow in full- part shade in moist loamy soil. Perfect to line a woodland path or a sweet addition to a shady rock garden. Cute fleshy rounded leaves with a scalloped edge sporting a red tinge and wine red leaf undersides. Delightful sprays of airy white flowers held high above foliage on red stems in late summer-fall are a welcome surprise as summer is winding down. For a pleasing combination try pairing with miniature hostas like ‘Blue Mouse Ears’ or ‘School Mouse’ and a Japanese Painted fern.
