Plant description
Characterized by its dense clump of grass-like foliage, 'Morning Star White' produces upright stems each bearing a white, rounded flowerhead. This sea thrift variety is perfect for adding a splash of colour to alpine beds or gravel gardens. Additionally, it can tolerate salt-laden winds, making it an excellent choice for seaside settings. In a town garden, it will thrive in a pot or windowbox and looks fantastic when incorporated into the front of a sunny border.
