Rosy Pussytoes
Antennaria rosea

Description: Pink and Cream clusters of flowers sit atop a slender stalk and remind one of the pads of a cats paw, hence its name. It makes a great ground cover with a mat forming habit and silvery green wooly foliage that retains its color and form year round. This plant is tough and can be used on grassy pathways, in between paving stones and in rockeries. Consider using the mat forming Pussytoes as an alternative form of weed control by letting it act as a ground cover in areas where plants are unwanted but always grow back; examples of this include back alleys, by the garbage can or gravel filled storage areas..
