Thrift Armeria maritima 'Alba' |
‘Alba’ is a sea thrift or sea pink cultivar that is noted for its grass-like foliage and globular white flower heads. This is a compact, low-growing plant which forms a dense, mounded tuft of stiff, linear, extremely narrow, grass-like, rich green leaves (to 4" long). Tufts will slowly spread outward. Tiny white flowers bloom in mid-spring in globular clusters each to 1" diameter - atop slender naked stalks rising above the foliage to 5” tall. Sporadic additional flowering may occur in summer. In the wild, species plants commonly grow in saline environments along coastal areas where few other plants can grow well, hence the common name and specific epithet.

Thrift Armeria maritima 'Duesseldorfer Stolz' |
A low-growing, clump-forming, compact plant featuring small, carmine-red flowers in tight, globular clusters atop wiry, naked, 6-10" stems rising up from a dense, rounded mat of stiff, grass-like, dark green leaves which spread out to 12". Good cut flower. Commonly called sea thrift because it can be found growing along sea coasts in saline environments where few other plants can survive.
