Sea thrift is a compact, herbaceous perennial that can handle challenging landscapes sites. Its evergreen foliage forms a low mat, which is useful as a ground cover to suppress weeds. In spring, pink, white, or purple flowers bloom in pom-pom-shaped clusters. Some varieties are native to parts of the US and Canada and grow readily in coastal gardens and gravelly sites. These hardy plants thrive in sunny locations with well-drained soil and can be used to edge perennial beds and walkways, or fill containers.
