Armeria Armada Pink

Armeria ‘Armada Pink’ is a compact, evergreen thrift forming neat, low cushions of grass-like foliage topped with bright pink pom‑pom flowerheads on slender stems in late spring to early summer. Ideal for rock gardens, coastal borders, edging and containers in Ireland, it thrives in full sun and very well-drained, light sandy or gritty soil. Deadhead spent blooms to encourage further display, and avoid winter waterlogging. Its nectar-rich flowers can be valuable to pollinating insects.

To help give a clear sense of scale, the stone wall shown in our photos measures approximately 265cm in height. We also use familiar garden tools as visual references: a digging fork (110cm tall) and a hand fork (30cm tall). These are included purely as size guides to help you better judge proportions when viewing the images.
