DESCRIPTION

Prunella incisa 'Rubra' forms a non-invasive, mat of foliage all year, which hugs the ground tightly. This all helps to stop water evaporation, and suppress weeds. Of course this is useful, but Prunella incisa 'Rubra' also provides lovely flowers. Blooming hardy ground-cover. So it is a perfect garden ground-cover, as well as a wonderful companion for roses. Self Heal for roses Prunella is much valued as a companion plant for roses, to help cut down the incidence of “Black Spot” disease. Especially valued for organically managed rose gardens, and where you wish to avoid the use of chemicals. You may have noticed that “Black Spot” always starts on the bottom leaves and works its way up the bush. This is because “Black Spot” are soil borne spores which leap up the rose when particles of soil splash up with rain or watering. So by planting dense Prunella around and under the roses, you are cutting the chain of infection, and cutting the need for chemical use. Some traditional rosarians also swear by Prunella’s ancient use as a disinfectant, to help cleanse the surface of the soil.
