Hypnotic Dreams Sea Thrift lifts rounded ruby-red to purple-red flower heads on wiry stems above a tight cushion of narrow, dark green leaves. Armeria pseudarmeria Dreameria 'Hypnotic Dreams' comes as a live 4-inch plant that repeats its bloom from spring through fall.

The evergreen mound stays neat and clumping, which makes it a natural for path edging, the front rank of a sunny border, coastal beds that take salt wind, and big containers that need something tidy but still flowering. Butterflies work the blooms, and deer and rabbits usually walk on by.

Fun fact: Armeria earned its seaside common names on Atlantic cliffs and salt marshes, where a dense cushion of foliage is exactly what lets a plant hold its ground against wind, spray and thin, sandy soil.
