The close foliage and short flower stems give it an intimate scale, making it a rewarding choice for a raised trough or the front of a rockery. Its rich flower colour stands out especially well against pale gravel or a neighbouring white saxifrage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eChoose a planting pocket with enough soil to keep the roots comfortably moist, while allowing excess water to escape. A cool site in light shade is helpful, particularly where summer sunshine would otherwise dry a shallow container quickly. Keeping some moisture around the roots helps the leafy cushion stay fresh through summer. Water in dry spells, avoid a permanently wet crown and trim away the old flower stems when the spring show has finished.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy we like it\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRich spring flower colour\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLow cushion habit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGood in a small trough\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat to know\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePosition: choose a cool spot in light shade, protected from hot afternoon sun.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSoil: use a moisture-retentive but very well-drained growing medium; grit helps water drain away.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWatering: keep the roots lightly moist during dry spells, especially in small containers.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWinter care: make sure drainage stays clear and avoid water collecting around the crown.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAfter flowering: snip off faded flower stems to leave the cushion tidy.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFlower Colour\u003c\/strong\u003e Deep pink to red\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFlowering Months\u003c\/strong\u003e April–May\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEventual Height × Spread\u003c\/strong\u003e 5–15 × 15–25 cm\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Easter Island","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55856544121159,"sku":"1142565","price":2.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0661\/8821\/4500\/files\/01-saxifraga-arendsii-harder-zwerg-138310_origin_img.jpg?v=1794596916","url":"https:\/\/www.newlands.ie\/products\/saxifraga-harder-zwerg-9cm","provider":"Newlands Garden Centre","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
