Rock Soapwort is a vigorous creeper with profuse, late spring pink flowers and fine, dark green leaves. It grows about 4 to 5 inches tall and 18 to 24 inches wide. It grows in sun to part shade, tolerating morning shade/afternoon sun conditions. Prefers well drained soils, and drought tolerant. Attractive cascading over wall and rocks. After flowering, deadhead spent blooms to maintain a tidy appearance; if planted in a large area as a groundcover, use a lawn mower set at 4 inches. Will tolerate light foot traffic.
If using as a ground cover, plant on 15 to 18 inch centers to fill in the first season. May be mowed after flowering to deadhead. Attracts bees.
