Saponaria officinalis | Flore Pleno | Rosea

Saponaria officinalis | Flore Pleno | Rosea

Known as Bouncing Bet, Soapwort amongst other things, this very pretty double pink saponaria is both sturdy and easy to grow.  The flower stems are strong and tall and in actual fact it is not unlike an annual gypsophila.

Great as an airy filler for your bouquets, the fluffy pink flowers float above the waxy grey blue foliage. The plants have a branching habit.

Flowers in late summer, so a useful addition to the border to compliment the blues, reds and purples of the season.

Vigorous and will spread if allowed and thrives in very poor soil in a sunny spot.

The leaves of Saponaria officinalis were used as a substitute for soap in washing, hence the name.

Perennial | Hardy 

Height: 60cm x spreading

Pot Size: 1 Litre
