Rhodanthemum 'Marrakech'

Rhodanthemum hybrid 'Marrakech' – supplied in a 2-litre pot

Plant Highlights: Soft pink daisy-like flowers • Compact evergreen foliage • Long flowering season • Excellent for sunny borders and containers

Overview

Rhodanthemum hybrid 'Marrakech' is a compact evergreen perennial grown for its delicate daisy-like flowers and neat, mounding habit. The soft pink blooms open above finely divided silver-green foliage, creating a gentle splash of colour throughout the warmer months.

Its tidy growth makes it particularly well suited to rock gardens, gravel planting, the front of sunny borders and patio containers. The attractive foliage provides structure outside the main flowering period, while the open flowers add a light, natural feel to planting schemes.

Plant Details

Growing Guide

Plant in full sun in a free-draining soil. Rhodanthemum performs best in open, sunny positions where excess moisture can drain away quickly, particularly during winter.

Water regularly while establishing, then only during prolonged dry periods. Container-grown plants may need more frequent watering during warm weather, but avoid leaving the compost consistently wet.

Wildlife

The open daisy-like flowers can attract bees and other pollinating insects during the flowering season.

Pruning

Remove faded flowers regularly to encourage further blooms and maintain a neat appearance. Lightly trim after flowering if needed to keep the plant compact and encourage fresh growth.
