Product Description

Snow in Summer

Despite it's wintery sounding title, this plant works very well on sunny banks, between stepping stones, and in the cracks of stone walls and ledges.

Snow in Summer (Cerastium Tomentosum)

The Cerastium Tomentosum is easy-to-grow. This perennial is a great herbaceous ground cover plant which is low-growing, creeping, very dense and mat-like, and 6 inches tall by 12 - 24 inches wide. It does not tolerate foot traffic, but performs very well as a general ground cover plant.

Snow in Summer has evergreen leaves that are grayish green and covered with soft-textured whitish hairs. Each reaches 1 inch long by 1/4 inch wide and is oblong in shape. These ground cover plants perform best in well-drained, sandy or loamy soil with low fertility. Excellent tolerance to drought and little watering is required once they are established.

The Cerastium Tomentosum is native to southern Italy. It is believed to originate from the Caucasus and southeastern Europe. It has since naturalized in Canada, the United States and France. Snow in Summer is great in rock gardens, as a border front, in cottage gardens, as edgings, or bulb cover!

How to Grow

Sow Snow in Summer seeds indoors 6 - 8 weeks before setting out. Use small pots and sterile starter mix. Sow Cerastium seeds lightly on the surface of the starter mix, and press the Snow in Summer seeds into the mix.

This ground cover seed needs light to germinate. Keep the seeds moist until germination, harden the seedlings for 10 - 14 days before planting Snow in Summer ground cover plants into their permanent location.

Snow-In-Summer prefers full sun; however, plants in hot zones do better in light shade. Snow in Summer ground cover can spread by self-sowing.

Can't really say as I haven't planted it yet. I'm going to spread some seed in the next few weeks to see if it will survive the winter, then grow plants in my milk jug garden in January. It's going to be an interesting experiment, but I think it needs the winter cold for the seeds to germinate.

I love that they sprouted fast in a pot now going to replant when they grow bigger. I don’t think there is 500 seeds but will see how they do bless you
