DESCRIPTION
Saxifraga x geum 'Dentata' is an attractive evergreen perennial known for its distinctive rosettes of deeply lobed, serrated green leaves with a leathery texture. In spring, it produces delicate sprays of small, white or pale pink star-shaped flowers that rise above the foliage, creating a light and airy display. The toothed edges of the leaves give the plant its 'Dentata' name. This hybrid is a product of crossbreeding within the Saxifraga genus, which has origins in the rocky, mountainous regions of Europe and Asia, making it well-suited to rock gardens and alpine settings.
