Armeria juniperifolia

Armeria juniperifolia (Juniper-Leaved Thrift) is a compact, evergreen perennial forming tight cushions of pastel pink flowers in late spring to early summer. The flowers are borne just above loose rosettes of needle-like, gray-green leaves. In regions with cool summer nights, this plant may repeat flower in late summer or fall.
