  • Description

  • Notes

Wisley Pink Rock Rose is a charming, low growing perennial that blooms late spring to early summer. Simple five-petaled flowers are soft pink to apricot. Plants are 6 or so inches high and spread to 18 inches. Leaves are green to grey-green and are finely textured. Unlike some spring bloomers, Rock Rose has very nice summer foliage, making it an good choice for a groundcover, though one that isn't walked on.
