Description

Scotch Moss is a captivating, vibrant groundcover that forms a brilliant, sun-loving carpet of chartreuse to golden-yellow. This low-growing perennial is not a true moss but a flowering plant with tiny, needle-like leaves that create a dense, velvety mat. In late spring, it produces a charming sprinkle of tiny, star-like white flowers. Tolerating light foot traffic, it is an excellent choice for softening the edges of stepping stones, filling gaps in rock walls, or creating a luminous, weed-suppressing carpet in sunny to partly shaded areas.

• Brilliant Golden-Yellow Foliage: Forms a dense, velvety mat of bright chartreuse to yellow foliage that provides a year-round splash of luminous color.

• Tolerates Light Foot Traffic: Unlike many delicate groundcovers, it can handle being lightly walked upon, making it ideal for planting between stepping stones or along garden path edges.

• Low, Spreading Mat-Forming Habit: Grows quickly to form a tight, weed-suppressing carpet only 1-2 inches tall but spreading widely.

• Charming Spring Flowers: Produces a delicate display of tiny, white, star-shaped flowers in late spring, adding a subtle, extra layer of interest.

• Versatile for Sun & Part Shade: Performs best in cool, moist conditions with morning sun and afternoon shade in hot climates. In cooler coastal areas, it can tolerate more sun.
