Helianthemum nummularium - Henfield Brilliant

Easy Vivid Orange Blooming Groundcover That Thrives in Sun and Heat

Up to 12 plants ship for just $14.99 - so Fill Your Box and Save*

This showy, floriferous, mat-like perennial groundcover is as beautiful as it is functional. It owes its common name (Sun Rose) to the 1” rose-like open-face bright orange flowers that blanket the plant in summer. Winner of RHS’s prestigious Award of Garden Merit, this showstopper tops out at a modest 3-6” tall but can spread slowly to 2 feet wide. It loves the sun and is surprisingly durable and drought tolerant. It also attracts bees and butterflies. No wonder it’s on the top of everybody’s groundcover list! Complementary greyish-green petite leaves form the blanket from which the flowers sprout. Plant in well-drained soil in a sunny location. It can handle poor soils but doesn’t like to be consistently wet. A great choice for an area suffering soil erosion or for a problem area that gets neglected. Be the first to surprise your gardening friends by saying “You HAVE to see my new ground cover!” Deer resistant.

Guarantee

We guarantee the perishable items we sell to be in good, viable condition when we sell them. Perishable items include, but are not limited to, garlic bulbs, flower bulbs, seed potatoes, onion sets & transplants, potted or bare root trees, vegetable crowns, etc. If your perishable item arrives in substandard condition, take photographs and please contact us within 3 days of the purchase date (or delivery date) and we will provide you with a refund of the purchase price (excluding shipping costs), or a replacement. Accordingly, we urge you to open any boxes marked as ""Perishable"" immediately upon receiving them and inspect the shipment thoroughly (do not crack open heads of garlic, we do not accept claims on cracked garlic). Because some perishable items can deteriorate very quickly, we cannot accept any claims beyond the 3-day time frame as it becomes too difficult to determine if these items were delivered in substandard condition, or if they turned into such substandard condition because of having been improperly cared for or stored once delivered.
