The detail
Arabis (also known as rock cress) are hardy alpine perennials valued for their ability to create vibrant, spreading mats of colour in early spring. These high-performing, low-growing plants produce masses of small, four-petalled flowers in shades of white and deep rose pink, sitting just above neat, evergreen foliage. Typically reaching 10–20 cm tall with a wider spreading habit, they are ideal for softening edges, cascading over walls, filling gaps in rockeries and adding seasonal brightness to borders and patio containers.
Our Arabis plants are professionally grown in high-quality peat-free compost and freshly delivered directly from our UK nursery in Yorkshire, in plastic-free, giftable packaging. Supplied as strong, well-established 1-litre rootballs (sets of 3 or 6 plants), they feature dense, fibrous root systems and healthy evergreen foliage, ensuring quick establishment, reliable coverage and long-lasting seasonal performance in a wide range of outdoor settings.
