Beyond its visual appeal, 'Ruby Glitter' offers a sweet, clove-like fragrance that adds another layer of sensory delight to your outdoor living areas. Its tidy, mounding habit makes it an excellent choice for front-of-border plantings, pathway edges, or as a vibrant filler in mixed containers, providing continuous color and charm.

Its low-maintenance nature makes it a perfect selection for both experienced gardeners and those just starting their green-thumb journey.

Care & maintenance

Requires occasional deadheading to promote continuous blooming. Shear back faded flower stalks after the main flush to encourage rebloom and maintain a tidy appearance. Fertilize lightly in spring with a balanced slow-release fertilizer.
