Aubrieta 'Florado Neon Pink'

Common name: Aubrieta 'Florado Neon Pink'

Description: Aubrieta 'Florado Neon Pink' is a strikingly vivid spring-flowering aubrieta producing an intense, eye-catching display of brilliant neon-pink flowers that completely smother the compact, mat-forming plant from early to mid-spring. The Florado series is bred for a particularly compact, uniform habit and exceptionally vibrant flower colour, making it one of the most impactful aubrietas available for rock gardens, dry stone walls, and raised bed edges. Like all aubrietas, it is fully hardy, drought tolerant, and thrives in the poor, well-drained conditions that challenge many other plants.

Other benefits: vivid neon-pink colour for maximum impact; very compact and uniform habit; profuse spring flowering; ideal for walls, rock gardens, and raised beds

Wildlife attraction: bees, butterflies, and other early pollinating insects — an excellent early-season nectar source

Height & spread (approx.) at 10 years: 5–10cm x 30–40cm

Position: full sun; dry stone walls, rock gardens, raised beds, and alpine troughs; excellent on chalk or sandy soils

Soil pH: neutral to slightly alkaline (pH 6.5–7.5); well-drained to dry soil; tolerates chalk, poor, and sandy conditions

Moisture: low; drought tolerant once established; excellent drainage essential; dislikes waterlogging

Winter hardiness: fully hardy to -20°C
