'Ballerina Lilac' produces pure white blossoms on thin, leafless stalks held high above the dense mounds of evergreen, grass-like, dark green foliage. Blooms from mid-spring thru early summer, and then sporadically through the summer months. Deadhead spend flower stems to encourage additional bloom.
Easy to grow, Sea Thrift thrives in full sun and loamy or sandy soils that are well-drained, especially in the winter. Foliage and roots tend to rot if grown in moist, fertile soils or in heavy clay. Thrifts prefer cool temperatures and low humidity. Where summers are hot and humid, it should be grown in part shade.
Sea Pinks are found naturally along coastlines where few other plants can handle the high salt concentration. Inland, this attribute makes them useful for planting along sidewalks or driveways that are salted in winter. They are also good candidates for rock gardens, troughs, or between pavers.
Excellent as a border plant, in containers or for cut and dried flowers, in mass plantings, Drought and Salt Tolerant.
