We love the miniature silver mats of Antennaria parviflora (little-leaf pussytoes). This little-known North American native (Canada south to Arizona) forms a tiny, 1″ tall groundcover that’s hard to the touch. In spring, the patch is topped with short fuzzy spikes of brush-like white flowers. The plant below, which measures 1′ in width, is only 18 months old from seed, and is growing in our rock garden in a well-drained mix of 50% Permatill. Hardiness is Zone 4b-7b.
Can you please tell me where can I buy Permatill for my garden? I’ve heard that it’s an amazing product that is only sourced in North Carolina. I live in Raleigh and would love to buy it, but can’t find information on where it’s available for sale locally.
Thank you!
Almost any vendor who sells bulk mulch also sells Permatill. You can also go to the Stalite store locator to find a source near you. https://staliteenvironmental.com/store-locator
Thank you so very much!
Also, I didn’t find Antennaria parviflora on your website. I would love to buy it. Will it be available for sale here at some point?
We are looking at putting it in production for next year.
