Garden Guru: Low-growing plant perfect for stepping stone path
Norman Winter
The Garden Guy was looking at photos of last year’s trials and I was struck by one of a mecardonia.
Mecardonia probably conjures up visions of one of the stops Moses and the Israelites made while looking for the promised land. I have never written about this plant and was thinking there is a great chance my readers do not know how wonderful and tough as nails it is, particularly the award-winning GoldDust.
GoldDust, a Proven Winners selection, has won 67 awards from north to south and east to west. It was a top performer at Penn State, University of Georgia, Tennessee, Cornell, South Dakota State, Minnesota, Mississippi State, Oklahoma State, and the list goes on for pages. This speaks volumes.
