Description of the plant:
Peter Pan is a moss saxifrage variety with beautiful rich red flowers atop thin, about 10 cm tall stems. It forms a compact clump of evergreen, soft green leaves. Flowers come out in profusion from mid spring and create a breathtaking colourful carpet. The plant grows slowly, spreading to sides. Saxifrage likes moist but well-drained, sandy soil and location in full sun or partial shade. It will die in full sun and dry soil. Hardy to about -34°C (USDA zone 4). Unsuitable for pots.
