This clumping, grass-like perennial has small pink flowers that resemble pom poms that bloom in spring and summer. This cute flower can be used at the edge of walkways and pavers as it doesn't do well with foot traffic. Grows 6 to 12 inches tall and wide.

Grow in well drained soil. Grows in full to part sun. Needs extra water to become established, but over-watering will cause it to rot. Deadheading will lengthen the season of flowering. See guides for perennial planting tips.
