Edelweiss is a favourite wildflower of the Swiss Alps, best suited to growing in a well-drained rock garden or pot plant. Plants form a low clump of silvery grey foliage, bearing odd clusters of woolly white flowers in spring and summer. Drainage is essential to prevent root rot in winter.

In certain states of Australia with extreme hot summers these will become short-lived perennials in your gardens.
