Armeria maritima 'Dusseldorf Pride' (Dusseldorf Pride Sea Thrift)
This short, tough, sun-loving perennial has deep pink, pom-pom shaped flowers that bloom for weeks in the late spring and - with deadheading - will repeat again in the fall. The grass-like leaves are evergreen and form dense 4-6 in. high and 6-12' in. wide mounds that thrive in full sun in rock gardens, as edging along pathways or between pavers.
Flowers float on narrow stems 6-10 in. above the foliage. Attracts bees and butterflies, is deer-resistant, drought tolerant, and generally disease and pest-free, but does require good drainage.
This is a cultivar of our native Armeria, found in our South Salish prairies and in maritime environments along the Pacific Coast, which explains one of its common names, Sea Pink; its other common name is Sea Thrift.
