Description
Saxifraga x urbium known as London Pride, so called as it is said to have colonised the bombed sites left after the London Blitz.
It forms a mat of leathery leafed rosettes from which rise sprays of delicate white to pink flowers atop thin stems in early Summer. This low cloud of white, floating flowers not only look beautiful but are great for small flower arrangements as they grow to no more than around 20cm in height.
