Description
Baby Sunrose is a versatile, trailing groundcover that thrives both in the ground and in pots. Its glossy, heart-shaped leaves, coupled with its delicate pink or red flowers, bloom primarily in the warmer seasons, adding a splash of colour to any garden. This plant can be used to fill in spaces between stepping stones, as a groundcover, or in hanging baskets, offering charm and lush vibrancy.
This resilient plant enjoys full sun to partial shade and adapts well to various soil types, even in poor, sandy soils. Watering needs are moderate, and it can handle dry spells once established. There's no specific pruning or fertilising requirement, making it an excellent choice for low-maintenance gardens. Whether in a garden bed or adorning a patio, the Baby Sunrose offers effortless grace and appeal.
