Armeria Dreameria 'Sweet Dreams'
Best low-maintenance perennial for busy gardeners wanting season-long, colorful blooms.
This is the rare perennial that actually delivers on the promise of season-long color without demanding constant deadheading. While it lacks the wild, sprawling drama of traditional cottage garden staples, you gain a tidy, heat-proof mound that keeps pumping out mauve blooms from the first frost until the last.
