Dancing Pixies Toni Saxifrage - Saxifraga cortusifolia

The Dancing Pixies Saxifrage is a very versatile little grower for the miniature garden. It can be grown indoors and outdoors. It's a forgiving plant with great foliage-color. It blooms the sweetest little flowers, it's tough and hardy! 

Check out the photos without the flowers and you can appreciate the year-round color-show. The bright pink underside of the leaves and the stems that simply sing with the deep, varying green colors of the foliage. Such fun in such a little plant.

The leaves grow bigger when they are happy - and smaller in the winter. The flowers pop-up from the the foliage and are just as happy and colorful.

AND this plant can be grown inside too.
