Description Here’s one for a hot sunny location with poor, dry soil! Antennaria dioica ‘Rubra’, commonly known as pink pussytoes, is a tough, cold hardy North American and Eurasian native ground cover growing 4-6 inches tall and 10-12 inches wide forming beautiful mounds or mats of bright silver-grey leaves with short stems of fuzzy, deep pink flowers in late spring that look like feline toes. A great accent with texture and form in the alpine and rock garden, in containers, on rock walls, and between pavers. A great ground cover for underplanting spring bulbs like botanical tulips, crocus, and dwarf daffodils. Attracts pollinators including native bees. Plants can be larval hosts for certain butterflies. Deer resistant.
