Description

Saxifraga cortusifolia is a short-day plant. It grows vegetatively in spring and summer, forming rosettes of foliage from which numerous flowers emerge with the onset of short days.
These extremely attractive, flowering, multi-coloured clumps appear in autumn, when there are few flowering plants in gardens and nature is preparing for winter dormancy.
Planted in pots in compositions with other plants, it makes an unusual decoration at this time of year.
It is also suitable for planting in beds, on patios and as a potted plant for interior decoration. All of this makes the lichen rockeries - those dancing goblins - of great interest.
Saxifraga cortusifoliaTori’ blooms profusely from November through to December, the flowers loose and star-shaped with dark pink petals lighter at the base, surrounding a yellow centre from which arise white stamens with dark tips, the leaves large, dark green with a slight burgundy edge.
